Jazovka is a pit in the Žumberak Mountains area of Croatia, known as a site of mass executions and burials associated with Partisan activities during and after World War II.
Hundreds of wounded Croatian soldiers from Zagreb hospitals and civilians were dumped in the pit.
Later in 1945 the Partisans used the pit to dispose secretly of bodies of prisoners of war following the Bleiburg repatriations.
[2][3] While local people retained the memory of these events, the communist government suppressed any acknowledgement of these wartime murders by the Partisans.
The Church has lined the path to the pit from a nearby village with images of Stations of the Cross.
