As a memorial to the many dead, such cenotaphs or war memorials remain very important to this day. "Now, Lord, you let your servant depart in peace, as you have said..." says the so-called "Hymn of Simeon" (Luke 2:29). However, the people commemorated here with this cenotaph—sometimes also called the War Memorial Chapel—did not depart in peace, but became victims of war and tyranny. Many places and monuments encountered along the way are a testament—still significant and relevant today—to the horrors of war and tyranny. They all have two essential functions, and this continues anew for each generation:

-1- To commemorate and remember the victims

-2- To remind us of the need to maintain peace

Inscription inside:

"... MAY THE GRASS HAVE LONG OVER YOUR GRAVES, YOUR BONES HAVE LONG TURNED AWAY, NO GRASS SHALL GROW OVER YOUR MEMORY, YOUR DEEDS SHALL NOT BLOW AWAY, YOUR GLORY SHALL BE IMMORTAL.

THEY DIED A HEROIC DEATH IN THE WORLD WAR 1914-1918

FOR KING AND FATHERLAND:..."

From the memorial the viewer has a great view of the Rhine valley.
