White Church, Karan, Serbian Orthodox church in Karan, Serbia.
The White Church consists of three bays crowned by a cupola and includes a semi-circular apse featuring a stone iconostasis against the eastern wall.
Župan Petar Brajan constructed this religious building between 1340 and 1342 on the location of a former Roman worship house discovered through tomb excavations.
The interior walls display 14th-century frescoes depicting Emperor Stefan Dušan with his family alongside saints from the Nemanjić dynasty and biblical narratives.
The church maintains regular services under the Eparchy of Žiča jurisdiction and welcomes visitors interested in examining medieval Serbian religious architecture.
The western wall frescoes present rare medieval family portraits showing Župan Brajan, his wife Struja, their son, and three daughters in traditional period attire.
