In the frames of its entire activities, the section of movable church items during the past decades has achieved some very important results. In the museum collection fund of this section till the present day, there are around 40 icons dating from the XVI c. to the end of the XIX c., as well as many other church items like: metal crosses, phutires, icon-lamps, candle-sticks and other. Also worth mention are the several icons belonging to the Toplica monastery, and today these icons are an important part of the treasures of the Bitola Museum. Due to the great artistic value they have as part of the national wealth of the Republic of Macedonia, these items have been presented in several European metropolises on many occasions.
