Half circle of Memorial columns for the soldiers from the surrounding suburbs fallen in the 1870 French/German War, later expanded for those of the First and Second World War, located a few hundred meters away from Wittbräucker Str along the Lohbach Valley into the Berghofen Forest.

in the Berghofer Wald, the war memorial was originally dedicated to those who died in the 1870/1871 wars - originally in a different form. Already at its place in the middle of the village, the victims of the First World War were considered. In keeping with the heroic thought, it was rebuilt in the Ehrental valley of the Berghofer Forest and framed in a semicircle with five annual stelae, which are particularly reminiscent of all those who died in the First World War.
