Vranje - The Diocese of Vranje, in cooperation with the Serbian Orthodox Church, is organizing an international academic conference called "Venerable Prohor Pcinjski - 950 years with the Serbian people", which will be held on September 25 and 26 in the Monastery of Venerable Prohor Pcinjski.

The topics for the academic gathering are divided into three thematic units - history (which consists of 17 topics), theology and art history (16 topics) and literature and language (13 topics).

The gathering will be held on the occasion of the 950th anniversary of the Monastery of St. Prohor Pcinjski.

The celebration of the 950th anniversary of the founding and 700th anniversary of the renovation of the Prohor Pcinjski Monastery, which was supposed to be held first in mid-May, and then on September 6, was postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The Monastery of the Venerable Prohor Pcinjski was built by the Byzantine emperor Roman the Fourth Diogenes in 1070.
