Summary/Abstract: The historical Serbian Orthodox cemeteries have a multi-faceted value in the construction and cultural-historical heritage of Sarajevo. The Old Cemetery in Carina and the Holy Archangels Michael and Gabriel Cemetery in Koševo with the Vidovdan Heroes Chapel are the spatial testimonies to social and urban development. The Chapel and gravestones are the spiritual and material heritage of Sarajevo’s Serbs in the historical context of duration and belonging. These guardians of individual and collective memories of the people and events of the past times are an invaluable and reliable cornerstone of the reception of national history and cultural identity of the city.
