HRH Crown Princess Katherine also visited the General Hospital in Gracanica to see what their needs are and what kind of problems they are faced with, in order to help this health care institution as soon as possible.

The Royal Couple then attended the memorial service for the Kosovo heroes in Gazimestan, where Crown Prince Alexander laid a wreath.

The Crown Prince congratulated Vidovdan, an important religious and national holiday for the entire Serbian nation around the world, marking the memory of the fallen heroes of Kosovo and Metohija.
