The town of Štip is mentioned in the foundation inscription of the monastery of Lesnovo by the Serbian Despot Jovan Oliver in the year 1341(u štipě). The Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan donated several estates of Stefan Hralja Dragovol to the Monastery of Hilandar after 1343. Among them were 50 houses in Štip with all rights, bought property, vineyards, watermills and the marketplace (U gradu 50 kukьь...I trgь u Štipu/U gradu Štipu, u amboriju stasь paričkihь 50 sь všemi pravinami i kuplenicami, sь nivьjemь i vinogradi i vodenicami i těm’ge amboriju trьgь). The Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan confirmed in 1348, that the Monastery Hilandar was in possession of the Church of the Holy Archangel and 50 place with people, rights, watermills and vineyards in Štip (U Štipu crьkovь Arhangelь i u gradu 50 stasi sь ljudmi i sь pravinami i sь voděnicami i sь vinogradi). Emperor Stefan Dušan donated the town of Štip to the Monastery of Lesnovo (ѹ градѹ Щипѹ).

| Lesnovo 1 | Source | The foundation charter of the Monastery of Lesnovo consists of a donation inscription in three parts on stone, of which two parts are in Slavonic and one part in Greek language. The Slavonic inscription starts on a marble architrave above the Western entrance of the katholikon (i.e. on the Eastern wall of the narthex) and continues outside above the Southern entrance to the naos. This inscription is dated to the years 1340/41 and calls the katholikon a "Church of the High Commander of the Heavenly Armies the Archistratigos Michael" (храмь великаго воѥводе вьїшних силь Aрхистратіга Mихаіла). The donors were the Serbian Great Vojvode (Veliki Vojvoda) Jovan Oliver with his wife Anna Mara (Ana Marija) and his son Kraiko (Krajko) during the reign of the Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan (reigned 1331-1355). |
| Lesnovo 2 | Source | In 1346/47 the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan (reigned 1331-1355) issued the foundation charter of the Bishopric of Zletovo, by which the Monastery of Lesnovo was defined as its see. |
| Lesnovo 3 | Source | On 15 August 1381 the Serbian nobleman Konstantin Dragaš issued a charter donating the Monastery of Lesnovo to the Monastery of Hilandar on Mount Athos. |
| Stefan Uroš IV Dušan's General Charter for the Monastery of Hilandar | Source | The Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan's issued the so-called "General Charter (Opšta hrisovulja)" to the Monastery of Hilandar, through which he confirmed all previous donations and records of the land-inventory of the monastery. Although the charter bears the date 1348, it is with the utmost probability not an original. Lidija Slaveva considers the charter to be a copy that was written after the year 1365. |
| Štip St. Archangel Michael 2 | Source | The present charter is a falsified document of Stefan Uroš IV Dušan, which confirms the donation of the Church of St. Archangel Michael in Štip to the Monastery of Chilandar. The date given in the document is the year 1336, but, based on the king's signature and the changes in the typologies of the mentioned settlements, it seems that it has to be dated in the years before the coronation of Stefan Dušan to emperor (i.e. 1343 to 1345). |
