On the corner of Sint-Pieter and Groenstraat you will find the monument in honor of the fallen of Rekem during the First World War. There is also a peace tree and, since 2018, an information board as in many other municipalities since that year (commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the Armistice of WWI).
