Church of St George

Probably the most important church in the Prespa region, the Church of St George was built in 1191. Located in the village of Kurbinovo, it has rather simple architecture and is one of the largest aisleless churches in Macedonia. It has frescoes both on the outside and the inside. The walls on the i

nside are covered in frescoes from top to bottom. These frescoes, in very good condition, are what make the church significant. The fresco of Archangel Gabriel is used on the Macedonian 50 denar banknote.
