It is part of the Stari Ras complex, an UNESCO World Heritage Site. It was founded around 820 during the reign of Prince Radoslav of Serbia, while additions were made in the following centuries, after which it served as the ecclesiastical seat of the Serbian church, and as the baptismal church and state council site of the Nemanjić dynasty, until the last years of the 12th century.
