Peć, Church of the Virgin Hodegetria (Patriarchate of Peć) Place The Church of the Virgin Hodegetria is situated in the city of Peć. It was built around 1330, South to the Church of the Holy Apostles (as a counterpart to the Church of St. Demetrius) by Archbishop Danilo II. It is a developed cross-in-square edifice with octagonal dome. Gothic bifora on its Eastern side was probably added later and matches the same one on its Southern side. In North-Western part of the Church is a sarcophagus of Archbishop Danilo II. The Church was fresco painted around 1337 (by the time Archbishop Danilo II died) and finished during Archbishop Joanikije.
Peć, the Patriarchate Place The Patriarchate of Peć is situated in the city of Peć in Kosovo. It was built in the 13th and 14th centuries by Serbian Archbishops, starting Archbishop Arsenije Sremac, St. Sava's successor on the throne of Serbian Church. It consists of three Churches dedicated to the Holy Apostles, Saint Demetrius and Virgin Hodeghetria. The narthex was added by Archbishop Danilo II around 1330 and served as an ante-Church to the three adjecent temples. Some frescoes of the narthex have remained; they were mostly restored in the 16th century (after the renewal of the Patriarchate).
