Object address: Klaipėda Recreation Park, Klaipeda, Lithuania
Municipality: Klaipėda
After the First World War near the barracks there was equipped the so-called Heroes Alley (now – the German Military Cemetery, located in Klaipėda Recreation Park). A cup-shaped monument, then known as the „Vase“, became its central axis. In memory of German soldiers, who died nearby Klaipėda, trees have been planted in the alley and panels with the names of the dead were built. There are carved the names of those soldiers who died in France, Belgium as well. German soldiers, who were killed in battles at Klaipėda during World War II, were buried alongside too. About 1970 the monument was blown up.
