War war 2 in Serbia

War trails in former Yugoslavia

Visit to the concentration camp located in the district of Crveni Krst (Red Cross) is one of the few fully preserved fascist camps in Europe. Even today, it provides authentic testimony to the perils of the Serbian, Romani, and Jewish population, communists, numerous supporters of the liberation movement and partisans, who were incarcerated here during the German occupation of Serbia (1941-1945).

While in in Nis, we will visit The scull tower This monument, unique in the world, was built after the Battle of Cegar. In the words of “a Serbian hajji from Nis”, the Turks prepared the construction of the tower made of skulls. When Hursid Pasha of Nis realized that, even though the post at Cegar hill had been taken, the battle and the explosion resulted in 3,000 dead Serbs and at least twice that many dead Turks, he ordered that the heads of the Serb victims be collected, skinned, and that the skulls be built into the tower. The heads were stuffed with cotton and sent to Constantinople.

The Memorial park “21st October” is situated in the area in which German soldiers on October 21st 1941, shot a few thousands of citizens of Kragujevac, men, women and children. The cause for the executions in Sumarice were German loses in battles with Serbian units on the road Kragujevac- Gornji Milanovac. In memory of these victims, the whole area of Sumarice was turned into the memorial park, on more than 352 acres. It was founded in 1953. By the monument to shot students and teachers, the manifestation “Veliki skolski cas” is being organized every year.
