Memorial for 1022 Yugoslav Fighters

The memorial is located in group 88 of the Vienna Central Cemetery in the district of Simmering. In this area of the cemetery, between 1938 and 1945, at least 73 Yugoslav nationals, who were forced into compulsory labor in Vienna as prisoners of war and died as a result, were buried. The memorial, erected by the Federal People's Republic of Yugoslavia on May 9, 1986, commemorates a total of 1,022 Yugoslav citizens who fell, died or were missing "on the territory of the Republic of Austria," including victims of persecution and resistance fighters, such as partisans who fell in Carinthia. Along the way to the memorial, there are two flat bases with dedicatory inscriptions in Bosnian-Serbo-Croatian and in German.
