Hermitage and Monastery of Saint Peter Koriški (Serbian: Испосница и манастир Светог Петра Коришког, Isposnica i manastir Svetog Petra Koriškog, Albanian: Vetmia e Shën Petritit) is a ruin of the hermitage and monastery located in Koriša, Prizren municipality, Kosovo[a]. The monastery and hermitage are on the same location.

History

The Monastery is an ancient cave dwelling that was abandoned in 1453 after the Turkish invasion.[1] After monastery was disbanded, the remains of St. Peter Koriški were moved to the monastery at Crna Reka in 1572.

The hermitage was a declared cultural monument on 16 December 1950,[2] and registered as a Protected Monument of Culture in 1990 under the protection of the Republic of Serbia.[3]
