Why visit

Choose Cathedral of the Resurrection of Christ because it adds extensive fresco decoration, large domes and stonework and active worship setting to a Podgorica itinerary. It is most valuable when the day is arranged around nearby stops rather than treated as an isolated detour.

What you will see

  • Extensive fresco decoration.
  • Large domes and stonework.
  • Active worship setting.

History

Built after the revival of religious construction in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, it became a major city landmark.

Visitor tips

  1. 1

    Allow enough time to read the interpretation and follow any dress, silence, bag or photography rules.

  2. 2

    Combine this stop with other places around Podgorica rather than adding unnecessary cross-country driving on the same day.

  3. 3

    Keep some cash available, protect valuables, and use only clearly authorised parking, guides, boats or activity providers.
