      Skull Tower
      Feb 2 2024

      In 1809, Serbian forces were desperately outnumbered by Turkish forces. It was the First Serbian Uprising against the Ottoman Empire. In the southern city of Niš, the Serbians decided to stand against the Ottoman forces. They would be massacred in this fight. Today you can visit this site, and it's marked by a morbid reminder of their defeat. A tower built out of their skulls.
