TheMala Remeta Monastery (Serbian:Манастир Мала Ремета,romanized: Manastir Mala Remeta) is aSerb Orthodoxmonastery on theFruška Gora mountain in the northernSerbia, in the province ofVojvodina. Its foundation is traditionally ascribed to the SerbianKingDragutin (1276–1282). The earliest historical records relating to the monastery date back to the middle of the 16th century.At the end of the 17th century, Turks had already destroyed it, so when Rača was torn down, the refugee monks came to their appendage Mala Remeta and reconstructed it. The appearance of the earlier church is not known, and the extant one was erected on the same site in 1739. The throne icons on the altar screen were painted byJanko Halkozović in 1759, and the wall paintings are a 1910 work ofKosta Vanđelović.
Mala Remeta Monastery was declaredMonument of Culture of Exceptional Importance in 1990, and it is protected byRepublic of Serbia.
