Despot Stefan Lazarević Memorial, Memorial monument in Crkvine, Serbia.

The memorial is a white marble column with an engraved three-sided cross and calligraphic inscriptions. It stands in the courtyard of Saint Prophet Elijah Church and is protected as a Cultural Monument of Exceptional Importance.

The monument was erected in 1427 to mark where Serbian ruler Despot Stefan Lazarević died. It was built by his companion Đurađ Zubrović to honor his memory.

The main inscription is an epitaph in the first person, presented as Despot Stefan's own farewell: he names himself son of Saint Prince Lazar, ruler of Serbs in Podunavlje and Posavlje, part of Hungarian land and Bosnia, and the Zeta coast, and says he lived 38 years. Below it, a second voice laments: "Pious Mr. Despot Stefan, good gentleman... Oh, hard it is to anyone who sees him dead in this place." The signature reads: "I, Đurađ Zubrović, sinful servant of God, laid this stone."

The monument stands in the courtyard of the Church of Saint Prophet Elijah in the Crkvine hamlet of Markovac, about 50 km south of Belgrade. The white marble column is 186 cm tall, 68 cm wide and 26 cm thick; the main inscription faces west, below a three-sided cross. The courtyard is a consecrated churchyard, so dress and behave accordingly.

The main epitaph on the west face may have been written by the priest Vukša, whose signature appears on the narrow side, or, according to another interpretation, by Despot Stefan's biographer Constantine the Philosopher. The monument also records the medieval date: year 6935, solar cycle 19, lunar cycle 19, 19 July.
