In 1964, national and regional government/veteran groups in Serbia organized plans for a commemorative monument complex to be built in a the forested area of Hisar Hill to honor the many civilians who had been executed there. The commission for this project was awarded to Bogdan Bogdanović. After seven years of planning and construction, the memorial was finally unveiled to the public on July 4th, 1971, a date meant to commemorate 30 years since the popular armed uprising against occupation during WWII. The choice of this date was significant as it commemorated exactly 40 years since the Serbian uprising against Axis occupation.
