The Church of Saint Sava is a Serbian Orthodox cathedral in Belgrade, Serbia, designed by architect Aleksandar Deroko in Byzantine Revival style. Construction began in 1935 and continued intermittently for decades, with the exterior completed in 2004 and interior work finishing in 2020. Rising 77.34 meters and clad in marble, rock, and gold, it is the fourth largest Eastern Orthodox church in the world by volume. Built on the site where Saint Sava's relics were believed burned by Ottomans in 1594, the cathedral is dedicated to Serbia's first archbishop and patron saint. Inspired by the Hagia Sophia, it stands as one of Belgrade's most recognizable landmarks.
