The House of Karađorđević is a Serbian royal family that traces its origins back to the early 19th century. Founded by Karageorge, the family played a significant role in the Serbian struggle for independence from the Ottoman Empire. The dynasty has produced several monarchs, including Peter I and Alexander I, who ruled during pivotal moments in Serbian history. After the abolition of the monarchy in 1945, the family went into exile. In recent years, members of the Karađorđević family have been involved in cultural and charitable activities, seeking to preserve their heritage and contribute to Serbian society.
