Patriarch Jeremias II of Constantinople

Jeremias II Tranos was Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople three times between 1572 and 1595.

Jeremias Tranos was born in Anchialos, from an influential Greek family. The exact date of birth is not known, most probably 1530, but some scholars suggest 1536. He studied with the best Greek teachers of his age, and in his youth he became a monk. Supported by the rich Michael Cantacuzene, he was appointed bishop of Larissa on about 1568.
