Outside the village there is a memorial complex in a forest. A stone pillar stands on a stone base (partially weathered). A cross worked out at the front.
Freestanding sandstone name board (70-71)
WW 1: A large stone boulder with a cross attached to it is on a brick pedestal. Name plates made of sandstone are used on the sides of the pedestal.
WWII: A circular small wall open in two places, on each of which two 7 sandstone crosses are attached. In the middle of the circle is a seated sculpture and an inscription plaque.

Beautifully designed memorial for 3 wars. There is also a hut for a break here.

This is a worthy grove for the town of Beerfelden - one commemorates the fallen sons of the town of the last two great wars and there is also a column with a name board from the Unification War of 1870/71👍🏻.
