Memorials and Book of the Dead Parish Church Satzvey

In a space below the tower of Satzvey Parish Church, to the right and left of a round stained glass window, are three wooden nameplates bearing the names of the fallen in both World Wars. Above all panels is a dedication. At the lower edge of the central panel a branch with oak leaves and on the right panel a branch of laurel.

The memorial or death book is on a small wooden desk. On the first page an iron cross, with the years 1914-1918 and 1939-1945. On the next two pages a table of contents with the 62 fallen soldiers of the two world wars, who are mentioned on the following pages with dates of death and partly glued prayer cards.
