The Diocese of Dacia Felix (Шаблон:Lang-ro; Шаблон:Lang-sr) is the Romanian Orthodox diocese of the Romanians in Serbia (including the Timok Vlachs).

History

In 1971, the Romanian parishes[1] in the Serbian Banat[2] were merged into a vicariate the center of which was Vršac (Шаблон:Lang-ro), Serbia, and which was part of the Metropolis of Banat.[1] This vicariate would later be ascended to the Diocese of Dacia Felix in 1997.[2] The city of Deta in Romania was chosen as its official center, while Vršac remained as the administrative headquarters.[1]

In the early 2000s, the diocese began to expand its influence over the Timok Valley, region that the Serbian Orthodox Church considers its own. On 31 March 2001, Daniil Stoenescu became the bishop of the diocese. In 2005, the first temple in the Timok Valley with services performed in Romanian was built. Serbian authorities viewed it as illegal and attempted to demolish it, but did not do so due to external pressure.[2] The diocese was withdrawn from the Metropolis of Banat in 2009 to be directly subordinate to the Patriarch of All Romania.[3] On 1 August 2017, Siluan Mănuilă, bishop of the Diocese of Gyula in Hungary, became leader of the diocese due to health problems of Stoenescu.[4] He was replaced on 5 July 2022 by Шаблон:Ill, who became the new head of the diocese.[5]
