Hiking

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 you come across along the way are evidence of the horrors of war and tyranny - and are still relevant and relevant today. They all have two main functions:
-1- Commemorate and remember the victims
-2- Remind to keep the peace

At the Kreuzkirche there is a memorial for those who fell in World War I. On the front was the inscription “To the honorable memory of your sons who fell in the World War 1914-1918.” “The grateful city of Bischofswerda.”, On the back there is a second dedication. "You died that we might live."
