Pomník se nachází v centru obce, v malém parku, po pravé strane hlavní silnice ve smeru na Kralupy. Uprostred malého kruhového prostranství je umístena pískovcová socha truchlící ženy. Na jejím podstavci je nápis "CEST VAŠÍ PAMÁTCE". Za sochu byl po druhé svetové válce pridán dva metry vysoký blok lešteného kamene s nápisem "BOJOVNÍKUM ZA SVOBODU". Chybí zde ale jakýkoliv jmenný seznam padlých obcanu.

The monument is located in the center of the village, in a small park, on the right side of the main road in the direction to Kralupy city. In the middle of a small circular area, there is a sandstone statue of a grieving woman. On her pedestal is the inscription "TO HONOR OF YOUR MEMORY". Behind the statue, after World War II, a two-meter high block of polished stone with the inscription "TO FIGHTERS FOR FREEDOM" was added. But there is no name list of fallen citizens.
