Price: Founded in XIII century , the history of Kladnitsa monastery "St. Nicholas " is not much . Over the years, the monastery there was a book that was detailed history, but in the 40s of XX century it was burned . So they get to us a little information about the activities of the monastery, which was formerly part of the Sofia svetogorie . A curious moment in history is that earlier monastery was available at a higher place than the present . Over the monastery then was a stronghold that included the lands of the monastery and was ruled by a local nobleman . After the destruction of the monastery during the Ottoman rule , it was rebuilt in XIX. More precisely, in 1841 on the initiative of the grandfather of the village called Spas Burnov Marchaevo and donations of many local people. Spas became the first abbot of the monastery.
At the time of nationalization Kladnitsa monastery "St. Nicholas " deprived of their property and religious life gradually it declined. Everything changed in 1995. Then at the monastery stays preceptor . Five years later, he left the monastery , but local authorities get on with the important task to rebuild their lives and activities in the cloisters . So today Kladnitsa monastery is now permanent , offers property and enjoys an active religious life.
