Sremska Mitrovica necropolis, Memorial cemetery in Sremska Mitrovica, Serbia

The necropolis features a 7-meter tall bronze urn and six burial mounds with bronze flame sculptures arranged around a star-shaped courtyard.

The memorial cemetery commemorates 12,000 victims executed during World War II, with its construction completed on July 4, 1960 under architect Bogdan Bogdanović.

The memorial complex includes inscribed panels documenting historical events and sculptures representing different Yugoslav republics within the memorial park setting.

The site underwent restoration by the Institute for Protection of Cultural Monuments in 2012 to address damage and maintain its historical elements.

Bronze flame sculptures top each burial mound, originally representing the six republics of Yugoslavia, with two additional mounds added in 1979.
