Makedonium is a very interesting Yugoslavian architecture perched up on the hill in Krushevo, a memorial for the soldiers.

Ilinden, also known as Makedonium, is a monument in Kruševo, Macedonia. Makedonium was officially opened on August 2 of 1974, on the 30th anniversary of the Second Session of the Anti-fascist Assembly for the National Liberation of Macedonia and the 71st anniversary of Ilinden uprising.

We enjoyed learning to fly our drone around this magnificent piece of architecture. It was very peaceful, tucked away with beautiful views and surrounded by nature.

The locals bring their horses to feed, and the bells chiming around their necks as they trim the grass add to the ambience.

Unfortunately, the monument was closed, so we could not enter to enjoy the stained glass windows as the sun set indoors.
