Saint Alypius Stolpnik is a Christian ascetic (one who renounces bodily pleasures for religious reasons) from the 7th century.

On December 9, the Serbian Orthodox Church and believers celebrate the Venerable Alimpij Stolpnik. Although he is not marked with a red letter in the calendar, this saint is highly respected by the Serbian people, and according to some data, he is in fifteenth place among the Serbs in terms of the number of priests. It is most often celebrated in Podrinje as a baptism.

Serbs believe that St. Olympias overcame the plague, stopped leprosy, warded off unhealthy winds and performed various other miracles. It is celebrated by herdsmen, so on his day, draft cattle are not harnessed. One goes to church early so that everything will be healthy in the coming year.

Although he was loved by everyone, he always gravitated towards a solitary lifestyle.

As the desire to live a solitary life prevailed, he retired to a Greek cemetery from which people fled because of the belief in demonic apparitions. There he settled on a pillar (pillar), having previously removed the pagan symbols and erected a cross. He spent most of his life on the pillar in cold and heat, fasting and praying (according to Christian tradition, about 53 years). This is why he was called a steeplechase and remained consistent despite the temptations and ridicule of people.
