Airmen’s Memorial in Slatinice

The memorial of fallen airmen is located on the yellow tourist route from Slatinice to the hill Velký Kosíř, it is about 1 km from the village. This memorial commemorates the air tragedy of November 10, 1998, when four members of the elite 331st Tiger squadron from Přerov, returning from an air show in Aldergrove, Northern Ireland, near Belfast, died in a crash of Mi-24V at the foot of the Velký Kosíř. Every year a reverential meeting is held here to honor fallen soldiers.
