Krichim Monastery "Nativity of the Mother of God" (transliterated: "Rozhdestvo Bogorodichno").
There is no known information about the time when the monastery was founded. According to various sources, built more on conjectures and assumptions than on real facts, the monastery was founded either in the ninth and tenth centuries, during the reign of Simeon, or in the thirteenth. The 15th-16th centuries can often be found in directories as a period for its creation.
