In the small village of Uzovce in the \u0160ari\u0161 Highlands you will find a rare mausoleum of the Bujanovics family, probably in the Classicist style. The mausoleum was built in memory of his son by J\u00falius Bujanovics (1862-1946), a landowner from \u0160ari\u0161, an agricultural expert. His son was a skilled pilot who operated on the present-day Italian-Slovenian border. According to the army files which are stored in the Vienna military archives, it seems that Albert completed 37 operational flights and only one air combat. He had several military decorations to his credit. His fatal flight was a training flight on 19 March 1918 over San Giustina airfield when he crashed from an altitude of about 20 metres. Lieutenant Commander Bujanovics was killed instantly, the passenger sitting in the observer's seat, Lieutenant Ambros St\u00f6ckl of the 92nd Infantry Regiment, sustained severe injuries. The native of eastern Slovakia was under 23 years of age. He was buried in a sarcophagus decorated with the family coat of arms, even in two coffins, one of tin and one of iron. The building, about five by five metres by six metres in height, appears as a crypt, its \u201efa\u00e7ade is plain, in the centre of the fa\u00e7ade there is a doorway of longitudinal cut-out with a heavy iron door. On the sides of the entrance are two columns. The crypt is covered by a dome, articulated by cantilevered half-columns.\u201d According to locals, Russian soldiers opened the grave during World War II , looted it and buried Albert's remains in the local cemetery during the last regime. Since then, the mausoleum has fallen into disrepair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
