Vasilije (Serbian Cyrillic: Василије; 1719–1772) was a Serbian metropolitan of Dabar and Bosnia who managed to depose and succeed Patriarch Kirilo II in 1763, and become the new Serbian Patriarch. He was removed shortly after and was thus the last ethnic Serb patriarch before the abolition of the Peć Patriarchate in 1766.
Vasilije, surnamed Jovanović Brkić, was born in 1719 in Sremski Karlovci. His father Jovan was a teacher. From 1732 to 1738, Vasilije attended a Slavic college at Karlovci (Collegium slavono-latino carloviciense) headed by Emanuel Kozačinski, at the same time as Vasilije Nenadović, the nephew of Metropolitan Pavle Nenadović. Later, the Austrian authorities closed the school and prohibited Serbian youth to pursue higher education in their own language. In the meantime, Vasilije was elevated to protodeacon by metropolitan Arsenije IV Jovanović Šakabenta and with that post, he was the supervisor of all deacons in the Metropolitanate of Sremski Karlovci. He supported and funded Hristofor Žefarović's monumental work. In 1749 Vasilije became a suspect when he took too many liberties with the church treasury and the Bačka bishop Visarion Pavlović, the abbot of Remeta Atanasije Isaijević, and the Kotor providur Ivan Zusta accused him of absconding. Finding himself in a predicament he chose to leave Austria for Ottoman Serbia.
