The Church of the Holy Transfiguration (Albanian: Kisha e Shpërfytyrimit; Macedonian: Црква "Свети Преображение") is a church in Herebel, Dibër County, Albania. Established in the 12th century, it was declared a Cultural Monument of Albania in 1970.[1] There is an annual celebration at the church, occurring on the 18th and 19th of August. While primarily attended by the Macedonian Christian population, it is also attended by Muslims.[2] In 2018, a dozen icons were donated to the church by the nearby Saint Jovan Bigorski Monastery.[3]
