Despite the ever-increasing distance in time from the two terrible world wars that brought hardship and misery to many countries in the first half of the 20th century, such a memorial (war memorial) is by no means a relic of bygone times that has lost its significance for us today. In his speech on May 8, 2025 – exactly 80 years after the capitulation and thus the liberation of Germany from Nazi tyranny – Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier said, among other things: “And if new wars worry us today, then we – especially we! – will not lose sight of peace. We know where war leads. We fear it rightly. THEREFORE, OUR PERSPECTIVE REMAINS PEACE. But peace does not prevail simply because we hold back, because we forgo strengthening our own defenses. For we are confronted with a harsh reality: We must do everything, together with our European partners… We must show: Democracies are not defenseless victims.”
