War Memorial Klein-Reken

In 1930 this memorial was erected in Klein Reken for the victims of the First World War. It was then adapted in 1965 and the names of the fallen soldiers of the 2nd World War were added. The monument is located on the main road on a raised pedestal that can be reached from the road via several steps. It consists of a monument with an image of 3 soldiers' heads and an eagle and the inscription "The heroes dead, the people in distress".

On the base also a spherical shape with inscription and a crucifix with an image of Jesus on it. The main statue is flanked by 2 blocks with inscriptions of names.
