Memorial Tobacco Factory

Next to the Assumption Church is a lawn with a large crucifix in the middle and a gallery on three sides.
It is part of the old cemetery. Beautiful frescoes and tombstones of families hang in the niches.

In one of the niches hangs a memorial plaque for the employees, victims of the First World War, of the Schwaz tobacco factory.

"Our Dead and Missing of the World War.
Permanent memorial of the Schwaz tobacco factory"

In the middle a warrior who slays the dragon. Left and right the names of the employees and workers with date and place of death or missing.
