The list of World War II monuments and memorials in North Macedonia represents monuments and memorials built on the territory of the present day North Macedonia during the times of Communist Yugoslavia.

History[]

The Yugoslav communist authorities established several memorial sites between 1945 and 1960, though widespread building started after the founding of the Non-Aligned Movement.

Yugoslav president Josip Broz Tito commissioned several memorial sites and monuments in the 1960s and 70s dedicated to World War II battle, and concentration camp sites. They were designed by notable sculptors, including Dušan Džamonja, Vojin Bakić, Miodrag Živković, , and architects, including Bogdan Bogdanović, . After Tito's death, a small number was built, and the monuments were popular visitor attractions in the 1980s as patriotic sites, and since the Yugoslav Wars and the dissolution of Yugoslavia, the sites are abandoned and have lost their importance.

The list houses monuments and memorials built between 1945 and 1991, and does not include busts or other statues of individuals (see bottom).
