The entire monument is decorated with funeral draping. The main face of the monument has the surname "Freschl" at the base, and a funeral wreath on the obelisk section, but it has no inscription.
Face 2 has a harp on the obelisk, and on the base is the inscription:
Unser lieben Zwilinge

[Our beloved twins, died 10 May 1881]
Face 3 has no inscription, but an anchor, signifying hope, is on the obelisk section. Face 4 has a dove on the obelisk section, with the following inscription on the base:
Meine liebe Mutter
Wilhelmine Koelsch
Gestorben den 24 März 1883

There is no suggestion as to how Ms. Koelsch and the Freschl children may be related. Perhaps their grandmother?
