Spomenik obešenima na Terazijama

Spomenik obešenima na Terazijama is a moving memorial to the five Serbs publicly hanged on August 17, 1941 by German occupation forces.

The 4-meter-high bronze column, designed by sculptor Nikola Janković, features reliefs of the hanging scenes along with verses by Vasko Popa.

It is not only a symbol of resistance against the Nazi occupation, but also an important national memorial. Every year on August 17, government representatives lay wreaths in honor of the victims, paying tribute to their courage and sacrifice.
