Memorial Chapel Ahrem

There is a memorial on the back wall of the Apollonia chapel in Ahrem. In the center is a stone cross with a body. This is flanked by two stone plaques bearing the names of the fallen. After World War II, an additional plaque was added here, specifically in memory of those who fell in World War II.
