Eparchy of upper Karlovac
The Eparchy of upper Karlovac (Croatian: Eparhija gornjokarlovačka, Serbian: Епархија горњокарловачка) is an eparchy of the Serbian Orthodox Church seated in the city of Karlovac, Croatia. It covers the area of Banovina, Kordun, Lika, Krbava, Gorski Kotar, as well as northern Croatia and Istria.
The important Orthodox Christian monasteries in the region are Gomirje near Ogulin and Komogovina between Glina and Kostajnica.
History
Serbian Orthodox Ličko-Krbavska and Zrinopoljska Eparchy was established in 1695 by metropolitan Atanasije Ljubojević and certified by Emperor Joseph I in 1707. This Eparchy (from the 19th century known as the Eparchy of Upper Karlovac) was the ecclesiastical centre of the Serbian Orthodox Church in this region.
This eparchy was under jurisdiction Dabro-Bosna's metropolitan, directly under restored The Serbian Patriarch in Peć and after 1766 under new Serbian Metropolitanate of Karlovci, grasping Lika, Banija and Kordun.
The eparchy was gravely hit in 1993 when the old Cathedral Church of Saint Nicholas and the Diocesan Residence were destroyed by the Croatians during the Croatian war of Independence.
