The monument is a broad, concrete column. On the front, an image of a Lancaster aeroplane is visible in relief. On top of the column a text can be read, with on top a glass plate. On it are, among other things, the names of the deceased. Seven tiles in different colours have been applied to the base, symbolising the seven deceased soldiers.
Monument Lancaster ED 973
The Lancaster memorial was erected in memory of 7 soldiers, who died in 1943 when the Lancaster ED 973 crashed. The plane, which was on its way from Waltham (England) to Oberhausen (Germany), was shot down by a German fighter plane near Grashoek on 15 June.
