This WWII memorial is combined with a WWI memorial. It was erected on the site of an old church in Monakam. The church, "To the Holy Cross", used to hold the Monakam Alterpiece and remained until a little after 1802 when the new church was built.
"Auf dem Platz des jetzigen Ehrenmales stand die Kapelle 'Zum heiligen Kreuz', die vermutlich nach 1802 der Spitzhacke zum Opfer fiel. Darin war Jahrhunderte lang das berühmte Monakamer Altarbild untergebracht."
"On this place where curretnly stands a memorial, stood the chapel 'To the Holy Cross', which probably fell victim to the pickaxe after 1802. For centuries the famous Monakamer Altarpiece was housed."
