Donji Žirovac (Serbian Cyrillic: Доњи Жировац)[1] is a village in Croatia. It is connected by the D6 highway. The village has 53 residents according to 2001 census, most of whom are of the Serbian ethnicity. It is famous for its Serbian Orthodox Church of St. Peter and Paul built in 1830, which was sadly bombed in the Second World War and it still stands in ruins many decades later. Despite its state the church is still occasionally used by the local Serbian Orthodox community.
