Dragalevtsi Monastery is a monastery in Vitosha, Sofia in Bulgaria . Located 3 km south of Dragalevtsi village it was built by Ivan Alexander in 1345 in the Second Bulgarian Empire. It is also known to the Orthodox as the “Virgin Mary of Vitosha”. After Sofia fell to the Ottomans in 1382 the monastery was destroyed. Only in the second half of the fifteenth century was it rebuilt, rapidly developing into a repository of Bulgarian cultural records. Today only the monastery-church survives of what was formerly a significantly more extensive complex of buildings.
