Saint Achillius Church, Medieval Orthodox church in Arilje Municipality, Serbia.
The Saint Achillius Church features alternating rows of stone and brick construction with a southern entrance instead of the traditional western portal design.
King Stefan Dragutin of the Nemanjić dynasty commissioned the construction of this religious monument in 1296 on the site of an earlier monastery.
The interior walls display valuable frescoes created by Thessaloniki artists, including portraits of Nemanjić rulers and archbishops from medieval Serbian history.
The church maintains regular visiting hours and stands on an elevated plateau near the confluence of the Moravica and Big Rzav rivers.
The burial site of Urošica, King Dragutin's younger son, remains preserved within the church walls, connecting royal heritage to this religious structure.
