On the right bank of the Great Morava, in the Village of Gložane, there is the Miljko's Monastery. According to historical data, the monastery was built in the early 15th century by the Duke (Serbian Vojvoda) of the Wallachia, Đorđe Radulbegović. It was destroyed several times by the Turks, and significant renovations were recorded in 1811, when it was restored by Prince Miljko Tomić (Serbian Knez Miljko Tomić), and in 1856 by Hieromonk Panteleimon. The monastery complex consists of a church dedicated to the Presentation of the the Most Holy Theotokos, the old guesthouse from 1962, and the new guesthouse from the 1980s. The church is built as a three-conch structure, vaulted with a semi-dome and a dome above the naos. Above the narthex, there is a bell tower. The facades are plastered and painted white. The roof is gabled and covered with galvanized metal. The frescoes in the church date back to the 20th century.
