The first church and the monastery building were constructed in 1180 at the expense of princess Helen. In 1241 the complex was destroyed by Mongol horde. The monastery revivification in 1583 was connected with Zosyma, the monk of Mount Athos, who comes from Bily Kamin village. Danylovychi family, who owned the Olesko Castle as a family estate, supported the monastery, too. In the period of the late XVII с. — early XVIII с. the further development and building of the monastery complex began. The present church of St. Onufriy and the monastery building were constructed at that time. They are the bright monuments of baroque style of the local architectural school. In the Soviet period the church served as a storage, and the monastery building served as a hospital. Since 1989 the complex has belonged to the Greek-Catholic church.
