Eparchy of Mileševa

The Eparchy of Mileševa takes its name from the Mileševa Monastery, the endowment of King Vladislav from the first half of the thirteenth century. The relics of Saint Sava rested at Mileševa until 1594, when Sinan Pasha took them to Belgrade and burned them on Vračar.

Restored in 1992, the eparchy covers the Lim valley and the Zlatibor area around Prijepolje, Priboj, Nova Varoš and Sjenica.
