Polozapomenutý pomnícek Josefa Hlušicky a Františka Kellnera. Stojí hned vedle kaple Nalezení sv. Kríže. První z nich zde padl 6. kvetna 1945 pri bojích s nemeckou presilou. Bylo mu 25 let a krátce predtím se vrátil z nasazení v ríši. Druhý podlehl zranením o den pozdeji ve veku 32 let. Pomník pripomínající tuto událost však zarustá trávou, písmo na nem necitelné, žula je pokrytá lišejníkem.
Half-forgotten memorial to Josef Hlušicka and František Kellner. It stands next to the chapel of Finding the Holly Cross. The first one fell here 6th May 1945 while fighting with the superior German forces. He was 25 years and shortly before he returned from deployment in Germany. The second succumbed to injuries a day later at the age of 32 years. The monument commemorating this event, however, overgrown with grass, illegible writing on it, granite is covered with lichen.
