Saxons, known as Sasi ({{lang-sr-cyr|Саси}}), migrated to medieval Serbia in the mid-13th century from Hungary. Serbia's mines were developed by the community. The earliest mention of Saxons in Serbia is from 1253–54, which shows them as an established community.{{sfn|Fine|1994|p=200}} These Saxons, or Sasi, had settled the Kingdom of Serbia during the reign of Stefan Uroš I (r. 1243–1276), from the Kingdom of Hungary.{{sfn|Fine|1994|p=200}} Under Stefan Uroš I, Serbia became a significant power in the Balkans, partly due to economic development through opening of mines.{{sfn|Fine|1994|p=200}} The mines were developed by the Sasi, who were experienced in the extracting of ore.{{sfn|Fine|1994|p=200}} Their settlements, located by the mines, had privileged status – they lived under their own laws and were allowed to adhere to Catholicism and build their churches.{{sfn|Fine|1994|p=200}} Mines included Brskovo, Novo Brdo, and others. LegacyThe villages of Šašare and Sase, Srebrenica, and the Saška reka was named after the community. See also
