    The memorial obelisk from 1920 was originally a memorial to the fallen soldiers of World War I (Nickern municipality). He is criticized, especially as he serves as the target of Nazi mimes.
    Everyone should form their own opinion about the inscriptions and their meaning in connection with the event.
    1) "1945 February 13 We commemorate the victims of the Anglo-American bomb terror"
    2) "1945 February 13 That it does not rest meaninglessly in the graves is due only to our will in our actions."
    3) "1945 February 13"
