The first part of the mosaic for the largest dome of the Temple of St. Sava in Belgrade has been laid by Serbian Patriarch Irinej and the outgoing president Tomislav Nikolic on Monday.
St. Savas Temple is the largest Orthodox church in Europe, whose construction began in the 1930s in Belgrade's central Vracar municipality, at the site where the occupying Ottoman Turks burned the remains of St. Sava (1175-1236), the founder and first patriarch of the autocephalous Serbian Orthodox Church.
