    The memorial, by the sculptor Robert Müller-Warnke, is a memorial stone to the imperial maneuvers of 1881 under Kaiser Wilhelm I.
    The memorial is located at the entrance to the particularly beautifully designed forest cemetery of the municipality of Oldendorf. A paved area is divided by three staggered, low stone walls, in the front four panels with the names and biographical data of the fallen of the First World War are inserted. The middle wall contains seven plaques with the names of the victims of World War II and the third wall has a frieze with the inscription: “Those who died for us”. In the niches in front of the walls there is a smaller boulder with the year numbers or with the ug. Inscription referring to the people considered in the respective section.


    On a free space to the right behind the third memorial wall, next to a large “floating” boulder (it rests on four metal legs), a tall stone sculpture has been erected, the stylized cross shape of which allows for different associations.
