Pomník obetem svetových válek se nachází v mestské cásti Rozdelov, v parku pred základní školou v ulici Doberská c. 323. Jedná se o zbylou centrální cást puvodního monumentu, který byl venován padlým vojínum a legionárum behem svetové války v letech 1914-1918. Témer všechny ctyri strany památníku jsou pokryty fotografiemi padlých, v jeho stropní cásti symbolicky "horí" kamenná pochoden na vecnou pamet dalším generacím.
Po 2. svetové válce došlo k velmi nevkusnému "doplnení" památníku, kdy byla pridána pametní deska (venovaná obetem nacistické okupace), která ale prekryla státní znak, venování a dokonce cást jmen padlých vojínu.

The memorial to the victims of the world wars is located in Rozdelov city district, in the park in front of elementary school in Doberska Street No.323. It is the residual central part of the original monument, dedicated to the fallen soldiers and legionaries during WW I in 1914-1918. Almost all four sides of the monument are covered with photographs of fallen soldiers. On its ceiling part symbolically "burns" the stone torch to eternal memory of the next generations.
After World War II there was a very incomplete "addition" of the memorial, when a memorial plate (dedicated to victims of the Nazi occupation) was added, but it covered the state emblem, dedication and even part of the names of the fallen soldiers.
