Dynastic order of Montenegro
The Order of Prince Danilo I (
Montenegrin : Орден Књаза Данила I ,
romanized : Orden Knjaza Danila I ) is an
order , formerly of the
Principality and later
Kingdom , of Montenegro; it is currently a dynastic order granted by the head of the
House of Petrović-Njegoš ,
Crown Prince Nicholas . It is awarded to prominent champions of the preservation of Montenegrin independence and for other humanitarian, scientific, artistic and pro-social achievements as defined by statute.
Alterations were made to the appearance of the original decoration created by
Prince Danilo , and during the rule of
King Nikola I Petrović Njegoš the order underwent two restructurings. During the first restructuring in 1861, three classes were introduced, while in the second restructuring, in 1873, an additional fourth class was added, so that not only is there a star in the 1st class but also a 2nd class with star was introduced. By 1922, the order consisted of five classes: Knight Grand Cross, Knight Grand Officer, Knight Commander, Knight, and Cross of Merit.

Although no longer a state order, prominent Montenegrin officials—including
President
Filip Vujanović —have been appointed to the order.
