The iconostasis was made between 1830 and 1840, by the famous masters Petre Filipovski and Makarie Frckovski. Contrary to the church canons, the mentioned masters did not miss here either, as well as the iconostasis in the church of St. Spas in Skopje, to present their characters in carving. The iconostasis according to its construction is divided into six horizontal fields. The base is composed of rectangular fields filled with ornaments from flora and fauna.

St. John Bigorski
v. Rostuše,
Municipality of Mavrovo and Rostuše


Based on the monastery monument inscribed in 1833, the monastery was founded in 1021 by the monk John, and in the 16th century the monastery was demolished by the Ottomans. The monastery was rebuilt in 1743 by the hieromonk Hilarion. This is confirmed by archeological excavations when it was established that today's church build in around 1800 was built on the foundations of two older single-nave churches.


The iconostasis in the monastery church of St. Jovan Bigorski is an extraordinary artistic achievement of the master Petre Filipovski. The way of processing the iconostasis, the richness of the figures and the compositions with motifs from the Old and the New Testament, place this iconostasis among the best achievements of the carving in Macedonia.
