The old orthodox church of Cherepish Monastery “God’s mother Assumptionâ€, Bulgaria. The Cherepish Monastery “God’s mother Assumption†lies in the gorgeous Iskar defile on the banks of the Iskur River. The origin of the Cherepish Monastery is connected to the history of the medieval “Koritengrad†which existed in the nearby unique natural area “Ritliteâ€. According to the legend, the monastery has acquired its name because of the white colour of the bones of the perished Bulgarian soldiers which were left after the battle of tsar Ivan Shishman with the Ottoman raiders.
