Cetinje Monastery is a Serbian Orthodox monastery in Montenegro which also acts as a centre of historical and cultural importance. The monastery was rebuilt despite being repeatedly destroyed by the Ottoman Empire. Remains of St. Peter of Cetinje, right hand of John the Baptist, particles of the True Cross, icon of the Philermos Mother of God, royal crown of Serbian king Stephen Uroš III Decanski are some of the few relics saved in the monastery.
