Serbian Monastery of Holy Archangels

The Monastery of the Holy Archangels was founded and raised in 1312 in Jerusalem by Serbian King Milutin. It is located within the walls of the Old City of Jerusalem in the Holy Land, near the Church of the Holy Sepulchre (Church of the Resurrection of Christ) and the Greek Patriarchate. As of 2025,

it is under the administration of the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Jerusalem. The monastery is located on St. Francis street 9, in the immediate vicinity of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre (Church of the Resurrection of Christ) and the Greek Patriarchate, in the Christian part of the Old Town. In the library of the Jerusalem Patriarchate, which has recently been renovated, you can find a rich treasury of Serbian-Slavic manuscripts originating from the monastery of St. Archangels Michael and Gabriel. The Holy Synod of the Serbian Orthodox Church sent a request to the Patriarchate of Jerusalem to return the monastery to the Serbian Orthodox Church.
