At this location, fighters of the Fruška Gora Detachment met with political workers and activists from the surrounding villages. From the summer of 1942 until the end of the war, various conferences and mass events, such as May Day celebrations and the anniversary of the October Revolution were held at “Jabuka,” named after the wild apple tree.
During the Great Enemy Offensive on Fruška Gora in 1942, “Jabuka” served as a refuge for people from surrounding villages, and it was here that partisans who had fallen in 1942 were buried in a mass grave. Nearby, a communal kitchen and weapons depot were located, and “Jabuka” occasionally served as a base for the Main Headquarters of Vojvodina, the Allied Military Mission, and rear military organs.
In September 1944, the 8th Vojvodina Brigade was formed at “Jabuka.” It was mostly composed of renegades from the Croatian “Homeguard” units from the Petrovaradin fortress.
The memorial complex "Jabuka" is part of the Fruška Gora memorials designed by architect Milorad Berbakov.
According to art critic Bela Duranci, "Jabuka" is "a unique example of harmonious interpolation of memorial content into untouched nature while preserving the magical effect of that space." As the central point of the memorial, Berbakov chose an existing wild apple tree, after which the site was originally named. Around the apple tree, a circle is shaped from which paths lead to other segments—partisan graves and inscriptions, crafted from oak logs and local stone.
