The monastery is located at the foot of slopes of Mount Rtanj, on the left from the road Zaječar – Paraćin, about 3 km away from the village of Krivi Vir.
The monastery church is dedicated to St. Gabriel, the Archangel, and on that day, the 26th July, the villagers gather together and celebrate church slava here.
It was renewed twice, in 1680 and in 1850. The church is of Moravian type. The paintings, as it is assumed, date from the time of the second renewal of the church.
