# List of saints of the Serbian Orthodox Church

This is a list of saints of the Serbian Orthodox Church.

## List

The Serbian Orthodox Church (SOC) venerates all Orthodox saints, regardless of ethnic background (e.g. John the Baptist, Maximus the Greek, Nicholas II of Russia). However, this list specifically includes saints who were either of Serbian descent and/or members of the SOC (or one of its historical predecessors).
Listed below are only those officially recognised by the SOC. Folk saints not yet canonised as such by the Church (e.g. Patriarch Pavle, Milica Rakić, and Thaddeus of Vitovnica) are not included.
The list below provides each saint's name (typically the one given at the saint's canonisation), year of death, feast day (on both the Julian calendar and Revised Julian calendar), saint titles and notes on the saint's notable actions and relations with other saints. An icon or photograph is also provided if available.
