War Memorial Church of the Assumption of Mary

At the back of the Ascension Church is a war memorial.

In the center a pedestal with inscription "1914 – 1918", with a statue of a man, sitting tied to a tree, struck in the heart.
On the left and right are large plaques with the names of the victims and missing persons of the First World War, alphabetically and per war year.

Next to this central part, to the left and right of the door, there are 2 more plaques:
"The fallen 1939-1945 of the second world war" with the names below per war year with year of birth and date of death and place of death.
Bottom right: "We commemorate the victims of the Schwaz bombings", also followed by the names by year.
