Petar Brajan

Petar Brajan (Serbian Cyrillic: Петар Брајан, fl. 1340–42) was a Serbian župan (count) that built the White Church (sr) in Karan, Užice, as a family funeral church. The church was erected on site of an older temple from the 10th century, mentioned in a charter edited by Byzantine Emperor Basil II in 1020. There are fresco portraits of Brajan and his family (his wife, son and three daughters) and of the Serbian Emperor Stefan Dušan (while he was a king), and his son Uroš V.
