Biography Origins.
House of Mihalović (also Mihalovich, Mihalovics, Mihalovits, Mihajlović) was a noble family from Orahovica in Slavonia that originated in Macedonia. In 1716, Emperor Charles VI granted them nobility status because they served as Habsburg officers and had fought against Ottomans during the Hundred Years' Croatian–Ottoman War. By 1763 they
were Eastern Orthodox Christians and were known under the name Mihajlović. Their economic and social rise began after their conversion to Catholicism. Several notable men came from House of Mihailović, including composer Edmund, Karlo (Károly) Dragutin (1830-1918), Hugo (1874-1956), Antun (1868-1949), the last ban of Croatia in Austria-Hungary, and Josip (József) (1814-1891).
