Strict, self-assured and with an attitude


Ljubica Obrenović (Srezojevci, 14 january 1785 – 14 May 1843) was a Serbian princess, the wife of Prince Miloš Obrenović.


She was the daughter of Radosav and Marija Vukomanović. The main matchmaker of her marriage with the Prince was Nikola Milićević Lunjevica, who negotiated the marriage with Milan Obrenović, Prince Miloš’s brother, forty days after the death of her father. The best man at the 1806 wedding was Serbian military leader Karađorđe, the wedding’s main organizer was Lazar Mutap, and the paranymph was Nikola Milićevic.


The princess was known to be strict and self-assured, and often assumed political stances, because of which several times she entered into conflict with her husband. On one occasion she shot dead one of Prince Miloš’s lovers, a certain Petrija. Her palace was her official residence, and was later the home of the Belgrade Lycee.


She bore with Miloš sons Milan (1819-1839) and Mihailo (1823-1868) and daughters Petrija (1808-1871) and Savka (1814-1848). Rule in Serbia passed from the Obrenović dynasty to the Karađorđević dynasty in 1842.
The Princess Ljubica died in exile in 1843 in Novi Sad, then in the Austrian Empire. She is buried in the Krušedol Monastery on Mt. Fruška Gora.
