Memorial Ossuary Lazarevac, Byzantine Revival chapel in Lazarevac, Serbia.

The Memorial Ossuary features a central dome with four smaller domes, following Byzantine architectural traditions and incorporating a bell tower at its front.

The church, constructed between 1938 and 1941, contains the remains of 40,000 Serbian and Austro-Hungarian soldiers who perished in the 1914 Battle of Kolubara.

The memorial contains relief sculptures by Mihailo Tomic depicting battle scenes, with marble plates listing military regiments in three separate compartments.

Visitors can access both the main church level and the memorial crypt, which spans 37 cubic meters and contains detailed historical information about the battle.

The church narthex receives its illumination through the nave rather than direct sunlight, creating different light patterns throughout the day.
