Patriarch of Serbia

From Freepedia

(Redirected from Patriarch Serbian)

This is a list of Patriarchs of Serbia, the person known officially as Patriarch of all Serbia, Archbishop of Pec, Metropolitan of Belgrade and Karlovci.

The episcopal see was founded in 1219 by St. Sava under the autocephaly of the Patriarchs of Constantinople. In 1346 it unilaterally declared itself as a patriarchate in Pec. This was only recognized by Constantinople in 1379.

After the Ottoman conquest of Serbia in 1459, the Patriarchate gradually lost its importance. At times the church was forced by the Porte to install Greeks to the office. From 1766-1920 the patriarchate was abolished and all ecclesiastical jurisdiction was placed under the Greek Orthodox Church. A metropolitan see was maintained in Belgrade from 1766 afterwards.

Due to the war between the Ottoman Empire and the Holy League, a large number of Serbs migrated to Austria-Hungary in 1690. This caused the establishment of a metropolitanate in Karlowitz (Sremski Karlovci). Later on the see was elevated to a patriarchate in 1848 as a reward to Serbians who supported the Habsburgs during the Hungarian revolt.

In 1920 after Yugoslavia was formed both episcopal seats in Belgrade and Karlowitz were united to re-established a united Serbian patriarchate.
