Mezilesí - memorial to the victims of World War I

Information

Visited:8. 5. 2020

History:This simple memorial was created to commemorate the 65 men killed in World War I. The memorial was created by an artist unknown to me and erected on its present site near the Baroque church of St Francis Seraphim in the 1920s or 1930s. After the removal of the German population at the end of World War II, it was no longer maintained and gradually fell into disrepair. Fortunately, as one of the few small monuments, it survived the destruction of the Dolina municipality and was restored to its present form in September 1995.
