The Monastery of the Holy Archangels is a Serbian Orthodox monastery and archaeological site in Prizren, Kosovo. Founded by Emperor Stefan Dušan between 1343 and 1352 on the site of an earlier church within the Višegrad fortress complex, it served as his burial church and marks the culmination of Serbian ecclesiastical architecture, which led to the Morava school style. Its two churches are built in the Rascian style.
