House of Božidarević/Bosdari

House of Božidarević/Bosdari

The House of Božidarević or Bosdari is a Ragusan noble family which originated in Dubrovnik (formerly Ragusa), Croatia. "Bosdari" is from the Ragusan Dalmatian/Italian languages.

In 1450 the Bosdari participated in the defense of Croatia against the Turks. Biagio de Bosdari (*c.1635) (Vlaho Božidarević), son of Michele de Bosdari (Mihajlo Božidarević), was admitted to the council of Ragusa on 5 November 1666, who contribuited with 5,000 ducats to the Republic treasury. In 30 July 1667 Diodato de Bosdari (Diodat Božidarević) as a token of gratitude for community service in the post earth quake period was admitted to the council of Ragusa. The brother of Biagio (Vlaho), Francesco (Frano) moved to Ancona, founding the Ancona branch of the family. An Imperial Diploma of 4 July 1753 created the Bosdari of Ancona nobles. The family later moved to Bologna.
