The House of Kostanjić is an ancient Croatian noble family from Drvenik which held the title Knez of Drvenik, Perun and Zaostrog. The ancestral seat of the family is known as Kula Kostanjić (Croatian: Tower of Kostanjić). The name of the family is derived from the archaic word kostanj (Croatian: chesnut)[1]
