    The scout memorial stands in a small forest behind the new home of the Raugrafen des Soongau scout tribe and is intended to commemorate the fallen scouts during the Nazi era.

    3 concrete steles with scout lilies show the new coat of arms of the Gau, the white lion on a red background, the Cross of Lorraine and an inscription on several black steel plates. The Lorraine double cross was the symbol of the resistance of the "Landshuter Ritterschaft", which had gone underground in 1923.
