An exterior view of the Archangel Michael Chapel at Sarajevo's Orthodox cemetery under which remains of Gavrilo Princip, assassin of the Austrian Archduke Ferdinand and his wife 100 years ago, are believed to have been buried, in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. The assassination on 28 June 1914 is regarded to have triggered the beginning of World War I. Princip died on 28 April 1918 aged 24 while serving a sentence in the Terezin prison in then Austro-Hungarian Bohemia. His remains were brought back to Sarajevo in July 1920 and reburied in the chapel's crypt in 1939.
