At the foot of the Prizren fortress Kaljaja, on a plateau with a view of Prizren, is the Church of the Holy Savior, the endowment of the Prizren noble family Vladojevic. The church is first mentioned in the founding charter of Emperor Dušan issued to the monastery of the Holy Archangels near Prizren (around 1348), which, among other things, states that the Holy Savior and all his estates, with the consent of the lord Mladen Vladojević and his mother, are attached to Dušan's endowment, as they are exchanged for the church and estates in Ohrid. The mention of Mladen's family in the charter and the emphasis on his patronage, which he had to inherit from his father, suggest that the Church of the Holy Savior could have been built during the second or third decade of the 14th century.
