This War Memorial honors 44 individuals who gave their lives in the First and Second World Wars. The Memorial takes the form of an obelisk, and the original was inaugurated in 1920.

Although their foundation often dates back more than a century – many were erected after the First World War (1914 to 1918) – they are by no means mere relics of a bygone era. The message of the almost ubiquitous "War Memorials," which continue to commemorate the victims of war and tyranny in villages and towns, remains relevant today. Despite certain similar basic patterns, the design of the memorials varies from place to place. But what they all have in common is the urgent appeal to remind us – each generation anew – of the necessity of preserving peace.
