Skopje, Upper Town, Great Gate Place The Serbian King Stefan Uroš II Milutin confirmed and donated landed property to the Monastery of St. George-Gorg near Skopje in the year 1300. In his charter he is mentioning the Upper Town of Skopje and also the fortifications, namely the "Great Gate" (при вратѣхь великыхь): вьнѹтрь града скопиꙗ при вратѣхь великыхь полата и црьквь светаа богородица еже ѥсть придаль монахь ксенофонть.
