In the town of BAD BRÜCKENAU,
there is a war memorial for the fallen soldiers of World War
I. Until autumn 1995, it stood on the market-square. Because
of the restructuring of this area, it was dismantled and is
now stored on a site owned by the city, which is located on
the street called "Zum alten FC-Sportplatz". A new location
for the monument can only be decided on, after its
restoration.
On the centrepiece of the war
memorial, all the names of the fallen soldiers from
BRÜCKENAU are immortalized: Below an Iron Cross with
oak-leaves to both sides, parts of the old inscription can
hardly be deciphered:
DIE STADT
BRUECKENAU... IHREN GEFALLENEN HELDENSOEHNEN.
(The town of Brueckenau.... to their Heroes, who died in
action...)
Below this, the hardly
readable names of the fallen soldiers of the town are listed,
among them also Jewish-German soldier:
Emil
Goldschmidt 27.4.1918 |
