description
The monument of honor made of quarry stones , a rectangular structure with two oval surrounding walls, is located in a small park. A pointed arch-shaped passage leads through the building, which is closed by an ornate, wrought-iron entrance gate.
The suggestion for the memorial to commemorate the victims of the First World War came from the Volksbund Deutsche Kriegsgräberfürsorge as early as 1924 . In 1939 the construction sum of 45,000 RM was raised through donations from private individuals and local industrial companies, so that after an ideas competition, the Lüdenscheid architect Tauche was commissioned with the planning. The plan was carried out by the municipality of Milspe.
