Paul IV, known as Paul the New (Greek, Modern (1453-);: Παῦλος; died December 784), was Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople from 780 to 784.[1] He had once opposed the veneration of icons but urged the calling of an ecumenical council to address the iconoclast controversy. Later, he resigned and retired to a monastery due to old age and illness. He was succeeded by Tarasios,[2] who was a lay administrator at the time.
Paul the New is venerated as a saint in the Eastern Orthodox Church, and his feast day is celebrated on August 30.
