The Kapija memorial in the heart of old Tuzla commemorates the 71 mostly young people killed by a single shell here in May 1995, one of the tragic events of the Bosnian war. The moving memorial, in the historic gate square, along with related museum displays, tells the story of the citys wartime suffering and resilience. Visiting the Kapija, a place of both remembrance and daily life, is a poignant and essential part of understanding the recent history of Tuzla.
