The parish house, which represents a debt to the ancestors and a pledge to future generations, will be a modern building with two towers, the Kosovo Tower, symbolically representing Holy Prince Lazar, and the Hilandar Tower, symbolizing Saint Sava.

The three-storey building will include, among other things, a memorial room, a library, a communal dining hall and offices, with a total of around 2,000 square metres of usable space.
