If you have 50 cents with you for an occasional candle, simply put it on the slate. Or even easier, take a grave candle with you and place it here.

It is important that places like the ones hiked here in the Hürtgenwald, illustrated and partly described, keep alive the memory of the hardship, misery and suffering of that time, and thus a testimony to the horror of war and tyranny. This culture of commemoration and remembrance has an essential and – for every generation anew – important goal: admonishing people to PEACE.

This memorial stone commemorates two American and one German soldiers who were found here during forest work in 1976!
