Church "St. Panteleimon"

The Church "St. Panteleimon" in village of Plevun is typical representative of the religious architecture in the middle of XIX century (Vazrajdaneto - the Bulgarian Renaissance). It was built in 1843 and is a 3-nave pseudo-basilica with a bell tower.

Among the most attractive elements in the temple are the wooden-carved iconostasis and the king`s icons.
