Eternal Flame, Memorial obelisk in Belgrade, Serbia.

The concrete obelisk topped with a bronze fire sculpture stands in the Park of Friendship, marking the site where a statue of Thutmose III once stood.

The monument was erected in June 2000 to commemorate military and civilian casualties from the NATO bombing campaign against Yugoslavia during March to June 1999.

The memorial represents a period of national resistance and collective grief, with regular ceremonies taking place to honor those who lost their lives.

Located 300 meters from the Ušće Towers, the monument remains unlit since October 2000 and requires maintenance due to weathering and vandalism.

The structure was built in just ten days without proper legal procedures, following the directive of Mirjana Marković, wife of then-President Slobodan Milošević.
