Design and history

It is a memorial to those who died in the First and Second World Wars. The monument is a stepped block of sandstone crowned by an iron cross. In the front there is a memorial plaque for the fallen of the First World War. There is an inscription on the side for the fallen of World War II. As this weathered heavily over time, it was renovated in 2013. For this purpose, the side was plastered again and then the names of those who died in World War II were re-engraved. But the dates of birth of the fallen were lost.
