From this same pile of stones forming a shelter, used as observation post for the Serbian senior officers in the Salonika, Alexander Karadordervic (King of Servia and Supreme Commander of the Army) followed the evolution of operations. The day was 15th September 1918, and the break through the enemy lies meant the end of the War for these people.
The Observation post was moved in 1928 and placed in the Pioneer Square, in the center of Belgrade. Later, some plates with images of the senior officers who used the structure was placed. "Association for preserving tradition of Serbia liberation wars until 1918" have posted bas-relief plates with characters of Serbian kings Karadordevic Petar 1st and Aleksandar 1st and also to French and Serbian army leaders on observation post from breach of Salonika battlefield, in Palatine park (now Pioneer park), in Belgrade (Author Ljubiša Mancic).
