Turkish Springs In Stari Ledinci
Turkish Springs in Stari Ledinci are one of the last traces of the Ottoman Empire period architecture in norther Serbian region of Vojvodina. The areas north of Sava and Danube river, which at the time were part of Ottoman Hungary, were reconquered by the Habsburg monarchy already at the end of the Great Turkish War and the signing of the 1699 Treaty of Karlowitz, significantly before the independence of the Principality of Serbia, which led to preservation of significantly lesser number of artefacts from the Ottoman period in the region. Springs still standing in the village were reconstructed in 1842 and another one in 1885. Today, both springs are protected cultural monuments. Systematic demolition of all symbols of Islam happened in the late 17th century after the region of southern Ottoman Hungary was reconquered by the Habsburg monarchy with the practice less all encompassing at future stages of what some called the Balkan Reconquista.

Eastern Orthodox
Eastern Orthodoxy, also known as Eastern Orthodox Christianity, is one of the three main branches of Chalcedonian Christianity, alongside Catholicism and Protestantism. Like the Pentarchy of the first millennium, the mainstream (or "canonical") Eastern Orthodox Church is organised into autocephalous churches independent from each other. In the 21st century, the number of mainstream autocephalous churches is seventeen; there also exist autocephalous churches unrecognized by those mainstream ones. Autocephalous churches choose their own primate. Autocephalous churches can have jurisdiction (authority) over other churches, some of which have the status of "autonomous" which means they have more autonomy than simple eparchies. Many of these jurisdictions correspond to the territories of one or more modern states; the Patriarchate of Moscow, for example, corresponds to Russia and some of the other post-Soviet states. They can also include metropolises, bishoprics, parishes, monas ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
