  • When he started the uprising of the Serbs against the Ottoman rule, the bishop of Vršac, Teodor Nestorović, could not have imagined that the collapse of the uprising would lead to a terrible punishment. Seeing the faith with which the people march under the banner of Saint Sava, the commander of the Turkish army, Sinan Pasha, ordered that, as an act of retribution, the miraculous relics of this saint be burned
  • Today, at the place where the relics were burned in Belgrade, there is a magnificent temple dedicated to Saint Sava.
