Monument to the victims of world wars is located in the center of Malé Prítocno, in front of the Municipal Office, near the frequented Kladenská road. This is the original monument devoted to nine fallen soldiers during World War I in 1914-1918. The stylized sunrise in the top part symbolizes the dawn of liberty, as the new Czechoslovakia was created on the ruins of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy in 1918.
After World War II, a commemorative plaque was added to the lower part of the monument, dedicated to the victims of Nazi occupation of 1943.
