Kadinjaca Memorial Complex - the most important information

The Kadinjaca Memorial Complex is located 14 km from Uzice and is dedicated to the fighters of the Workers' Battalion, of Posavina and Orasje who died there on November 29, 1941, enabling the NOPOJ (People's Liberation Partisan Detachments) Supreme Headquarters, partisan detachments and the partisan hospital to escape from the Germans who wanted to conquer Uzice and capture Tito.

History of the Kadinjaca Memorial Complex
Originally, on November 29, 1952, a monument-pyramid was unveiled, erected in honor of the fallen defenders of Kadinjaca. Then, from 1977 to 1979, a monumental complex was built, which was ceremoniously opened on September 23, 1979, and in the same year it was declared a cultural monument of exceptional importance. In 1984, the permanent museum exhibition "Workers' Battalion and the Battle on Kadinjaca" was opened, and a park with 88 trees was built in honor of Josip Broz Tito.
