Vraca Memorial Park

The Vraca Memorial Park (Serbo-Croatian: Spomen-park Vraca / Спомен-парк Враца) is a park dedicated to the World War II victims in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina.

[1] It covers 78,000 square meters and mentions the names of over 11,000 men, women, and children killed during World War II.

[1] The idea was to rehabilitate an old Austro-Hungarian fortress by combining the work of Vladimir Dobrović as designer, Alija Kučukalić as sculptor, and Aleksandar Maltarić as landscaper.

[1] In 1996, the park was systematically destroyed by withdrawing VRS forces after the signing of the Dayton Agreement.

[3] On 16 May 2019, the park was renovated, where night lighting was connected for the first time, and the eternal flame was kindled after 27 years.
