Kaludra is a village in the municipality of Prokuplje, Serbia. According to the 2002 census, the village has a population of 80 people. [1]
Kaludra was inhabited by Albanians before the Expulsion of the Albanians took place in 1877–1878. [2] All Albanians left the Prokuplje region by force of the Serbian army and fled to modern-day Kosovo, which was back then the Vilayet of Kosovo of the Ottoman Empire. These Albanians became known as Muxhahirs (meaning "Muslim refugees" in Albanian) [3] and were demographically Albanians of the Gheg dialect and Muslims.
Some families in Kosovo kept their surname (Kalludra) as the village they were from.
