The site is dedicated to 547 fallen soldiers and civilians of Slabinja who were killed during the World War II in Yugoslavia. The author of the monument is Stanislav Mišić. The construction of the monument was completed in 1981. According to a Croatian researcher Sanja Horvatinčić, this monument seems to be directly inspired by the 1919 Russian constructivist poster Beat the Whites with the Red Wedge by El Lissitzky.
