Heimkehrerdenkmal
0The Heimkehrerdenkmal (Monument to Homecomers) is a monument in Friedland, Germany dedicated to German prisoners of war during World War II. It is significant as one of the only monuments in Germany dedicated to Germans who served as soldiers in the Second World War. The monument was commissioned by the Verband der Heimkehrer, Kriegsgefangenen und Vermisstenangehörigen Deutschlands (Federation of Homecomers, POWs and Relatives of the Missing - VdH), which had been founded in 1950 to represent the interests of German veterans. When the monument was inaugurated in 1967, representatives of the German federal government declined to attend because of the monument's controversial focus on German victomhood. The monument has been subject to vandalism, including graffiti referencing German concentration camps.
