Temple of Saint Sava | The Orthodox heart of Belgrade | Serbia
The Temple of Saint Sava in Belgrade, Serbia is the largest Orthodox Church currently in use. The church is dedicated to St. Sava, founder of the Serbian church and an important figure in medieval Serbia. The temple has been built on the Vračar plateau, on the location where, in 1595, St. Sava’s remains are thought to have been burned by Turkish Sinan Pasha. From its location, the temple dominates Belgrade’s skyline and is perhaps the most monumental building in the city. The building of the church structure has been financed exclusively by donations.
The church is adorned with beautiful mosaics of Christ the Pantocrator with a 66-ft. arm span, the Mother of God, and the Nativity of Christ, scenes from the Old and New Testaments, and Serbian saints, covering an area of more than 161,000 square feet and weighing more than 320 tons, making it a unique church in the Orthodox world. 24-karat gold was used in the mosaics. Especially monumental are the mosaics of the creation of the world, overseen by the Ascension of Christ in the main dome. According to the Byzantine tradition, the circular space under the dome is covered with a blue mosaic, which evokes the heavens.
