The Monastery of Krepicevac lies at the foot of the Kučaj Mountains, north of Jablanica village, in the gorge of the Radovanjska River. Its church, dedicated to the Dormition of the Theotokos, was built on an older sacred site at the end of the 15th or beginning of the 16th century and is recorded in Ottoman tax registers by 1531. The founders belonged to a respected Christian family permitted by Ottoman authorities to build and paint the church. A donor inscription survives on the northern wall of the narthex, depicting Georgije, son of Jan, with his wife Zora and son Manojlo offering a model of the church to the Theotokos. After early mentions, the monastery disappears from records until 1761, when a large wooden cross and iconostasis doors were donated. Marginal notes in books indicate monastic presence, though the monastery has not been active in recent decades.

he church has a triconch plan with a western narthex, covered by a semi‑cylindrical vault beneath a gabled roof. Acoustic ceramic pots are built into the walls. Above the western entrance is a lunette with the Theotokos and Christ. The choir conches are set far from the altar apse, creating a spacious eastern bay that accommodated a built altar screen with three arched passages and an arcosolium containing the tomb of Elder Josif, a Sinai monk from the late 14th century.

This unusual spatial arrangement may reflect early Byzantine traditions seen in sites such as Caričin Grad and Kuršumlija. Fresco evidence suggests the narthex once had an upper floor with transenna‑covered windows.

Fresco decoration is partially preserved: in the narthex, Christ Pantokrator and the Heavenly Liturgy, the donor composition, and a Deesis above the inscription. Other surviving scenes include the Nativity of the Theotokos, Akathist compositions, Christ’s teachings, and figures of desert fathers typical for small monastic churches. In the naos remain fragments of hierarchs, the Transfiguration, the Dormition, Pilate’s Judgment, and Saints Constantine and Helena. The arcosolium shows the death of Elder Josif, venerated by the founders. The altar screen was fully painted; today parts of the Theotokos Intercessor, Christ Pantokrator, the Deesis, bishops, and St. Danilo the Stylite remain, along with the Vision of Peter of Alexandria and decorative motifs.

Conservation work took place from 1968 to 1974.
