Sehitluci by sculptor Antun Augustincic- monument of free Yugoslavia built in honour of the Partisans. Banja Luka


Today a neglected heap of marble but the place is still an important landmark and popular outing spot for people in Banja Luka. The hill was until recently called Sehitluci (from Turkish Shehit) But the (Serb)nationalistic Government of this Bosnian region changed all "improper" names. This hill is now called "Banj Brdo".
