Right-Believing Right-Believing King Vladislav of Serbia

Right-Believing King Vladislav, son of St. Stefan the First-Crowned and brother of St. Sava of Serbia, ruled Serbia from 1234 to 1243. He founded Mileševa Monastery, which became one of the spiritual centers of medieval Serbia and the site of the famous "White Angel" fresco.

In 1237, Vladislav solemnly translated the relics of his uncle, St. Sava of Serbia, from Tarnovo in Bulgaria to Mileševa, where they remained until the monastery's destruction by the Ottomans in the 16th century. In 1243 he was deposed by his younger brother Uroš I and withdrew from affairs of state. He died around 1269 (sources vary on the exact date). He is venerated by the Serbian Church among the right-believing rulers of the Nemanjić dynasty.
