Grand War Memorial for victims of WW1. Construction consists of 3 elements of war: the foot soldiers adore and fight as heroes for their leader and are prepared to die for their fatherland. Also pay attention to the element of the innocent victims. On the side are other memorial bases for other tragedies.
