Mausoleum of Yugoslav Soldiers in Olomouc, Military mausoleum in Bezručovy sady park, Olomouc, Czech Republic.

The neoclassical chapel features twelve Doric columns arranged in three rows, leading to an entrance with a prominent dome reaching 11 meters in height.

Built in 1926 by the Czechoslovak-Yugoslav League, the mausoleum houses the remains of over 1,100 Yugoslav soldiers who died in Olomouc military hospitals during World War I.

The memorial displays an epigraph in Czech and Serbo-Croatian languages expressing loyalty and love, representing the connection between these two nations.

The mausoleum underwent extensive renovation between 2016 and 2020, and the property is currently managed by the city of Olomouc.

The structure contains an ossuary built within an artificial mound, where small coffins hold remains collected from various cemeteries across Moravia and Silesia.
