At the beginning of the Second Serbian Uprising, while fighting with Turks in Rudnik, Arsenije Loma was shot fraudulently to the head with a gun, after which he died in the house of the Rakić family in Blate. He was buried in the nearby meadow. There was only a stone post without any kind of inscription on his grave, where he was laid without a coffin or his personal belongings. In 1926, Arsenije Loma’s remains were taken out and moved to a pyramidal monument in a small town of Rudnik, at the crossroads to Topola and Gradovi, in front of the building of elementary school which bears the name of this hero from the First and Second Serbian Uprising. This monument made of white Venčac marble was build both as a memorial to Arsenije Loma as well as townspeople from Rudnik who died in the wars from 1912 to 1918, and whose graves are scattered all over the world.

The upper west part of this monolith (near the road to Topola) contains the inscription: Rudnik – to the worthy sons of the ancestors who died fighting for their homeland from 1912 to 1918. Below the inscription, there is a list with 106 names covering three sides of the monument, and an ending on the upper east part of the monument in the form of a message of those who didn’t return from wars to the future generations: Children – the future of ours – we have lit a flame of your Freedom with our blood and bones scattered all over the Balkans, Asia, Europe, and Africa. We leave everything in your legacy! The lower front side of the monument has the following words: The remains of Arsenije Loma – the duke of Kačer – lie beneath this pyramid. On top of the pyramid, there is a carved double-headed eagle with spread wings – made of the same white Venčac marble – with the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes, as well as a royal crown on its head. The eagle was demolished in 1944 by someone, but the new sculpture was made and placed in the same spot in 1986. The artist was an academic sculptor from Gornji Milanovac – Nebojša Savović Nes.
