    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

    After 1945, the monument was completely redesigned (typical of the GDR era, when many war memorials were demilitarized or "pacified"):
    The nameplates were removed (two plates were destroyed, two were saved by the local historian and museum founder Streblow; they are exhibited today in the Lindow Local History Museum).
    The inscription on the granite stele was changed to:
    „In memory of the dead, as a warning to the living. For the victims of the World War 1914–1918.“
    Later, an addition was made for the victims of fascism 1933–1945.
