Kriegerehrenmal, War memorial in Hofgarten, Munich, Germany.

The memorial consists of a rectangular pit measuring 28 by 17 meters, featuring an open crypt that contains a commemorative soldier statue.

The memorial, inaugurated in 1924 and completed in 1928, honors 13,000 Bavarian soldiers who perished during World War I.

The structure incorporates inscriptions including 'Unseren Gefallenen' and 'Sie werden auferstehen', reflecting German military remembrance traditions.

The memorial stands at the eastern section of Hofgarten, directly in front of the Bayerische Staatskanzlei building, accessible through multiple park entrances.

The memorial's roof consists of a massive 250-ton panel supported by twelve stone blocks, creating a 7.30 by 3.50-meter interior space.
