Saint Panteleimon (Macedonian: Свети Пантелеjмон, Sveti Pantelejmon) is a monastery in Ohrid, Republic of North Macedonia situated on Plaošnik. It is attributed to Clement of Ohrid, a disciple of Saint Cyril and Saint Methodius. Archaeologists have come to believe that the monastery was the site where the first students of the Glagolitic alphabet (used to translate the Bible into Old Church Slavonic) were taught.

Apart from the monastery’s many reconstructions during the Ottoman Empire, it has undergone an extensive reconstruction and excavation from 2000 till 2002. Most of Saint Clement’s relics were returned to the church. Reconstruction was carried out by hand using materials used to build the original church in order to preserve the original spirituality of the monastery.
