In 1928, Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk, the first President of Czechoslovakia, made provisions for an institute, which would study Byzantine-Slavonic relations. Jaroslav Bidlo then initiated the formation of a circle of specialists in this area of studies, which included František (Francis) Dvorník, Karel Kadlec (later replaced by Theodor Saturník), Aleksandr Kalitinskij, Matija Murko, Nikolaj Okuněv and Miloš Weingart.
In May 1929, this group formed the Commission of Byzantine Studies attached to the Institute of Slavonic Studies in Prague. Its members simultaneously became editors of a new journal called Byzantinoslavica, the first volume of which appeared in the same year.

Originally, Byzantinoslavica mainly published articles on Byzantine-Slavonic relations approached from various perspectives including political and ecclesiastical history, philology, literature, law, art history and ethnology. Beside articles it also published reviews, critical editions as well as reports on field research and conferences. The editorial board also wished the journal to inspire cooperation between Czechoslovak and international scholars worldwide. The journal was then published until World War II (1939—1946). In 1946, volume VIII/1939—1946 presented studies gathered in course of the war.

Since 1947 the journal has been publishing articles on the whole range of subjects and disciplines relevant to Byzantine Studies. This broader scope was reflected by an enhanced title: Byzantinoslavica – Revue internationale des études byzantines. The publication of Byzantinoslavica then continued until 1999, when its then editor-in- chief, Dr. Vladimír Vavřínek, retired from his office and the journal was suspended for three years. Dr. Lubomíra Havlíková restarted its publication in 2003 and became its new editor-in-chief.

In 1932 –1995, bibliography held a prominent position in the journal. While in the pre-war period it mainly focused on works related to Byzantine–Slavonic relations, after World War II it came to include the whole area of Byzantine Studies reflecting the change in the scope of the journal.
