The commemoration of the fallen in Schwanenstadt is an important tradition that remembers the victims of war and tyranny. In Schwanenstadt there is a war memorial that honors the fallen and deceased comrades of the world wars.

In addition to the war memorial, there are also other memorials to the victims of National Socialism in Schwanenstadt and the surrounding area. For example, there is a memorial plaque for the Jewish victims of the Shoah, which is located on the facade of the former Rosenfeld department store.
