Ribbon of the order

The Order of Saint Peter of Cetinje ( Serbian Cyrillic: Орден Светог Петра Цетињског) is the a dynastic order of the Royal House of Petrović-Njegoš. [1] As Montenegro is now a republic, the order is distributed as a private house order of the deposed family. [1] The Order is bestowed upon prominent members of the Petrović-Njegoš family, [2] as well as to others.

The name of Prince Danilo, the first Montenegrin ruler with a purely secular title, is inscribed on the Decoration.

The Order was named after the Patron Saint of the Montenegrin Orthodox Church, Prince-Bishop ( Vladika) Peter I Petrović, the person who effectively obtained independence for Montenegro, and to whom is attributed the creation of the modern Montenegrin State.
