In 1928, the memorial to Frankfurt's fallen, missing, or deceased soldiers of the First World War was inaugurated. The monument, designed by architect Hermann Senf, is an open-topped rotunda with a moat, constructed of black basalt. Inside is a figure of a reclining, dead soldier, based on a design by Paul Seiler. The memorial is part of the war cemetery, which originally contained the graves of 1,625 German soldiers and 41 Russian and Serbian prisoners of war.
