Aleksa Đurašević


Aleksa Đurašević Crnojević, known as Lješ was the lord of Paštrovići of the Lordship of Zeta and a voivode of the Serbian Despotate, alongside his older brother Đurađ.
Đurađ and his brother Aleksa were lords of the territory of Paštrovići during the reign of Balša III. The Đurašević family was a branch of the Kalođurđević family. Its members held the most distinct positions in the court of Balša III.
After the death of Balša III they refused Venetian invitations to switch sides and to accept Venetian suzerainty remaining loyal to new lord of Zeta, Serbian Despot Stefan Lazarević. They controlled 10 salt ponds in Grbalj valley near Kotor. Đurađ and his brother Aleksa built the Kom Monastery in the period between 1415 and 1427, when Upper Zeta was held by the Crnojevići.
On 10 March 1420 Venetians promised to appoint Đurađ and his brother Aleksa as governors of Budva.
