St. Michael's Cathedral, Belgrade
The Cathedral Church of St. Michael the Archangel (Serbian Cyrillic: Саборна Црква Св. Архангела Михаила, romanized: Saborna Crkva Sv. Arhangela Mihaila) is a Serbian Orthodox cathedral church in the centre of Belgrade, Serbia, situated in the old part of the city, at the intersection of Kralja Petra and Kneza Sime Markovića streets. It was built between 1837 and 1840, on the location of an older church also dedicated to Archangel Michael. It is one of the most important places of worship in the country. It is commonly known as just Saborna crkva (The cathedral) among the city residents. It was proclaimed as a Cultural Monument of Exceptional Importance in 1979. The cathedral church is one of the few preserved monuments of Belgrade from the first half of the 19th century. During the times when new social and political structures were slowly emerging, the cathedral church became a central support in the independence fight from Turkish centralism to the final freedom from Ottoman rule.
