Mount Athos: Historic visit of three generations of the Serbian royal family to Hilandari Monastery (VIDEO)translated

September 7, 2026 · 1 min read

A visit with a special historical and symbolic character is made to Mount Athos by three generations of the Serbian royal family Karageorgević. In the Holy Monastery of Hilandariu are the heir to the Serbian throne Alexander, his son and hereditary prince Filippos, as well as the little prince Stefanos. Prince Philip released video of the visit on Saturday, calling the joint presence of the three generations a "historic moment".

"For the first time in the centuries-old history of Hilandari, three generations of the Serbian royal family reside simultaneously on Mount Athos, in the sacred imperial Lavra of the Nemanids, the Monastery of Hilandari," he said in his post.

In the footage released by Prince Philip, the three family members are seen walking down the cobbled corridors of the monastery accompanied by monks.

They then enter the catholicon and worship the icons, while little Stefanos follows his father and grandfather on their tour of the historic site.

It's nice to see three generations together in Hilandar. Little Stefan following his father and grandfather along the stone paths is exactly what is remembered. Thanks for sharing the video.
