A monument to those who fell during Latvia’s liberation battles

Near Karva along the old Alūksne-Ape road, the monument was unveiled on November 12, 1937.  It was designed by the architect Verners Vitands and contains the text “Soldiers from the Valmiera Brigade who fell during Latvia’s liberation battles in 1919; I rested my head on the moss and defended my fatherland.”  The monument was torn down in 1975 and restored in 1944.
