Keva's pit cave

Keva's pit cave is a karst sinkhole near Radošić with a funnel-shaped opening at ground level. The opening reaches roughly 30 meters (98 feet) across at its widest point, with a limestone formation visible within.

During World War II and the years that followed, the cave became the site of mass killings by Yugoslav Partisans. The victims were local residents targeted for their perceived opposition to the Communist regime.

The site now serves as a memorial where people come to remember victims and reflect on history. It holds weight in how the community remembers difficult periods of the past.

Access to the site requires a permit and coordination with local authorities due to its historical significance and security concerns. Visitors should plan ahead and contact relevant officials before attempting to visit.

The site was officially recognized as a memorial with a European remembrance day marking on August 22, 2015. This designation connects the location to broader European remembrance efforts for victims of totalitarian regimes.
