EXHIBITION “CRUCIFIED KOSOVO” OPENED

On May 20, 2003, exhibition of photographs called “Crucified Kosovo” presenting the destruction of Serbian shrines in Kosovo and Metochia was opened in the atrium of the National Museum in Belgrade.

This exhibition has already been staged in many European cities where it aroused significant interest.

Such presenting of tragical events in the region of Kosovo and Metochia is one of the ways to inform the world public of the continual jeopardy of our cultural and spiritual heritage which is an integral part of the European cultural heritage.

The photos show vandalism, cultural genocide and eradication of any sign of the Serbian existence and life in this region. Shrines set on fire, annihilated churches, destroyed graveyards...such pictures leave no one indifferent.
