Petrič (Serbian: Petrič, Петрич) or Petrč or Petrić was a strategic military complex consisting of two late medieval fortresses in Nerodimlje Župa of the Kingdom of Serbia. The role of the main fortress Veliki Petrič (or Velika Kaleja) and a smaller fortress Mali Petrič (or Mala Kaleja) to its west was to protect the court of the King of Serbia in Nerodimlja. In 1331, the Serbian king Stefan Uroš III Dečanski was apprehended by his rebel nobles at Petrič.
