The Church of St Naum is located uphill from the Church of St Toma, the Church of St Nikola, and the Church of St Spas, near the village Leskoec.
It is on the hill, next to a huge metal cross. Stairs lead from the asphalt road to the church, see the pictures. You can also follow the asphalt road uphill to St Naum.
When we visited, the site was in the process of being renovated and seems to be turned into either a monastery or place where people gather in the weekends for picnics etc.

The Church of St Spas (The Holy Savior) lies uphill from the churches of St Toma and St Nikola in the village Leskoec.
It is located on the local graveyard.
The Church of St Spas lies on the slope of Mount Petrino. It was built by the people of the village. There is an inscription mentioning more than 20 names as founders of the church. Two founders had a special role, Tode and his wife Bulka. They are painted in the frecoes.
St Spas was built in 1462 and renovated in 1898. The frescoes also date from the 15th century.
An interesting fresco shows St Clement in full size, holding a model of the village. The only other similar portrayal of St Clement can be found in the Lesser Physician Saints Church (Mali Sveti Vraci), also named the Church of Saints Cosmas and Damian, in Ohrid.

If you walk uphill from the main road from Ohrid to Bitola, the first church in Leskoec that you will encounter is the Church of St Toma.
It is a new church, and it was not completely finished when we got there.
Next to the church is a little chapel decicated to St Petka.
