    Hiking

    In 1923, architect Reinhard Erasmus designed a memorial for those who died or were missing in World War I. It resembles a grandstand with staircases on both sides. In front of the monument was a sprinkled water basin. Four weathered plaques showed the names of the dead, above which is the motto in the style of the time: "What you were to us, tears and years do not erase in a loving breast". The official inauguration took place in 1924. The complex is (2012) badly neglected and awaits restoration.

    The saying above the list of names is thought-provoking.
