The Dragović monastery is a Serbian Orthodox monastery situated on a hill downstream the Cetina River, not far from Vrlika in Croatia. When the artificial Peruća Lake was created, the original monastery sank due to land movement. The new monastery was built on a hill not far from the previous one and is now located next to Lake Peruća, 20 kilometers from Knin.
