An der Save: Aus Sirmium wird Scremska Mitrovica

serbien sremska mitrovicaSremska Mitrovica ist eine serbische Stadt in der Vojvodina am nördlichen Ufer des Flusses Save, die auf dem Siedlungsgebiet der antiken byzantinischen Stadt Sirmium liegt. Das einstige Sirmium hieß im Mittelalter im Ungarischen „Stadt des Heiligen Demetrius an der Save“.

Die Antike Periode endet mit der Eroberung Sirmiums durch die Awaren 582 und ist auch eine wichtige Zäsur in der Geschichte Südosteuropas, da mit den Awaren die slawische Landnahme erfolgte.

Im Mittelalter war die Stadt lange Zeit zwischen Byzanz und Ungarn umkämpft. Method von Saloniki hatte im 9. Jahrhundert seinen Sitz als Erzbischof von Pannonien und Großmähren in Sirmium/Sremska Mitrovica. Um 1180 kommt Sremska Mitrovica endgültig unter ungarische Herrschaft. Der geläufige mittelalterliche Name der Stadt war Civitas Sancti Demetrii, die Stadt des hl. Demetrius, der im ungarischen Szávaszentdemeter heute noch besteht.
