Ehrenmal Haltern Lippramsdorf

Ehrenmal Haltern Lippramsdorf, War memorial in Lippramsdorf, Germany

Ehrenmal Haltern Lippramsdorf is a war memorial featuring two soldier figures in military uniforms and steel helmets, with one figure holding a stick grenade on a pedestal. The sculptures dominate the center of the district and serve as a focal point for remembrance.

In 1922 the Lippramsdorf veterans' association planned a memorial for World War I dead but lacked funds. After 1933 the Nazi regime promoted such monuments, and in 1934 the association bought land at Lembecker Straße/Birkenallee. A 1936 design showing soldiers carrying a fallen comrade was rejected as insufficiently heroic; sculptor Johann Brinkamp's second design was approved, built by his Stadtlohn firm in 1938, and handed to the community on 10 June 1938.

Bronze plaques from 1952 display the names of those who died in World War II. A later addition in 1985 emphasizes reconciliation between nations, transforming the site into a place that looks toward peace rather than conflict.

The memorial stands at the corner of Lembecker Straße and Birkenallee in the centre of Lippramsdorf. It is reached on foot; the surrounding streets are narrow village lanes, so visitors arriving by car park nearby and continue on foot. The bronze plaques sit at ground level around the pedestal and are read up close.

The first 1936 design showed two soldiers carrying a fallen comrade to the grave; the Gaukulturwart rejected it as not heroic enough. Sculptor Johann Brinkamp of Stadtlohn then submitted a second design in December 1936, which was approved and built by the Brinkamp firm in 1938.
