Monument to the victims of World War I in Tósnyárasd

Statue, monument, memorial plaque

 In World War I, the village of Tósnyárasd had 26 heroic dead. Their memory was immortalized on a memorial plaque in the Roman Catholic church of Tósnyárasd in 1932. Following this, in 1934, in memory of the heroic dead, a memorial cross was erected at the end of the village, along the road leading to the old cemetery, by János Fehér and his wife Eleonó Varga. After 1975, when the new cemetery was established in the village, the Tósnyáras Municipality had the monument moved here.

Inscription/symbol:

Hail the Cross of Christ, the hallowed tree of our earthly hope and our salvation that preserves happiness. Let us pray for the heroes who fell in the World War. It was erected by the elder János Fehér and his wife Eleonóra Varga. / 1934
