Kirilo II ( Serbian Cyrillic: Кирило II, Greek: Κύριλλος Β΄) was Archbishop of Peć and Serbian Patriarch from 1759 to 1763. He was an ethnic Greek. [1]
In 1758, internal crisis and struggles in the Serbian Patriarchate of Peć resulted in deposition of Serbian Patriarch Gavrilo IV, and soon after that another ethnic Greek — metropolitan Cyril ( Greek: Κύριλλος), was appointed at his place, becoming Serbian Patriarch "Kirilo II". New patriarch had to face many difficulties, since the Serbian Patriarchate of Peć was in great debt, [2] and he also faced some internal opposition among Serbian clergy. One of Serbian metropolitans, Vasilije Jovanović-Brkić of Dabar and Bosnia managed to depose and succeed patriarch Kirilo II in 1763, becoming new Serbian patriarch as Vasilije I. [3]
