Francouzské delo na návsi v Tvarožné

Na vrcholu Santonu, vypínajícího se západne od Tvarožné,
se nacházel operný bod francouzského delostrelectva - palebné postavení - delostrelecká baterie generála Clapareda, což pripomínala replika historického kanónu typu Gribeauval, instalovaného v léte roku 1988, a pokrteného jménem Jeanette.
Jde o osmiliberní delo ráže 12,2 cm s dostrelem 1200 m.
Ovšem toto delo bylo po mnohých choutkách vandalu presunuto na náves obce Tvarožná, kde stojí dodnes.
