Statue in memory of the military victims of the First World War. The kneeling soldier has a laurel wreath in his hand. The statue is by the hand of sculptor G. De La Fontaine and was inaugurated on 23 August 1925.
Three memorial plaques are also built into the cemetery wall behind the statue. One reads "O Sacred Heart, remember our brave sons. Reward their heroic struggle and remain as king enthroned by the people devoted to you. Ad 23 Harvest 1925"
