    From the memorial to the soldiers killed in WWI, you have a beautiful view of Hainsberg. Unfortunately, the monument is sprayed with graffiti and the year 1918 is stolen .... ....

      As a memorial to the many dead, such memorials or war memorials are still very important today. "Now, Lord, let your servant go in peace, as you said." However, the people who are commemorated here did not divorce in peace, but became victims of war and tyranny.
      Many of the places and monuments that you come across along the way are evidence of the horrors of war and tyranny, which is still relevant and relevant today. They all have two essential functions, anew for each generation:
      -1- Commemorate and remember the victims
      -2- Remind to keep the peace
