List of the Righteous Among the Nations from Serbia
The list of the Righteous Among the Nations from Serbia lists in alphabetical order those Serbs who have been honored by the Yad Vashem memorial with the title Righteous Among the Nations . This title is given to non-Jewish individuals who, under National Socialist rule during World War II, gave their lives to save Jews from murder. The year refers to the award of the title.
139 Serbs have so far received the title of Righteous Among the Nations : Especially among the states that emerged after the fall of Yugoslavia , there is often disagreement about the national affiliation of the rescuers, which can result in deviations between different sources. The spelling of the names is based on the spelling in the overview provided by Yad Vashem, which only uses the standard English letters.
