    Tips

    June 19, 2024

    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.

      This memorial, located at the entrance of Cranbrook, commemorates the residents of Cranbrook who were killed or missing in World War I and World War II. It is a granite column with a stepped top and features a coat of arms. The names of the individuals are listed in the Parish Church of St. Dunstan.
