Culture Centre in Pilica, Zvorniik

The building of the Culture Centre in Pilica was used on two occasions as a detention facility for Bosniaks from the Municipality of Zvornik, who were taken from this site to be executed. This was initially in 1992 and the second time following the fall of Srebrenica in 1995. On that occasion, on 16 July, VRS forces brought around 500 captured Bosniaks to the building of the Culture Centre where they were killed the same day in the afternoon and their bodies were taken to the primary mass grave at the military estate in Branjevo. During 1996, the bodies were transferred to secondary mass graves.
