Kovači Cemetery, located in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, is a significant and somber site, particularly known for its connection to the Bosnian War of the 1990s. It serves as the final resting place for many soldiers who defended the city during the siege, as well as civilians who lost their lives. One of the most notable graves in the cemetery is that of Alija Izetbegović, the first President of the independent Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
