Until recently the Eberhard Karls University of Tübingen (Germany) had on display a marvelous historic document, the charter issued by the Moscow’s tsar Peter I in 1708, which confirmed Ioasaph Krokovskyi (1650-es – 1718) as metropolitan of Kyiv. Now a German-Ukrainian team of historians from the Institute for Eastern European History & Area Studies, University of Tübingen investigated the provenience of this important document.
