Padomju Latvija, 1919.–1920. gads
I Neatkarības kari

Atrodas Gulbenes vēsturiskajā centrā pretim Gulbenes Evaņģēliski luteriskajai baznīcai.

Piemineklis 1905. gada nemieru upuriem, Pirmajā pasaules karā un Latvijas Brīvības cīņās kritušajiem Gulbenes draudzes locekļiem un Malienas tribunāla upuriem. Piemineklis veidots pēc E. Ābeltiņa meta, atklāts 1929. gadā pretī Gulbenes evaņģēliski luteriskajai baznīcai. Pēc Otrā pasaules kara piemineklim uzlikta piecstaru zvaigzne, tad - uz tā pamatiem - bronzas krāsā krāsots ģipša padomju karavīra tēls, bet aiz pieminekļa ierīkoti kritušo padomju karavīru kapi. Kad 1969.gadā Spārītes parkā tika atklāti jaunie Otrajā pasaules karā kritušo padomju karavīru kapi, kritušo mirstīgās atliekas pārveda tur, bet pieminekļa vietu nolīdzināja līdz ar zemi. 1989.gada rudenī tika atrakti pieminekļa pamati un izcelta 1928.gadā tajos iemūrētā kapsula ar tekstu. Piemineklis atjaunots 1992. gadā (tēlnieks O. Feldbergs).

Laikā no 1918.gada 24.decembra līdz 1919.gada 31.maijam, kad 1.(4.) Valmieras kājnieku pulks atbrīvoja Gulbeni no lieliniekiem, baznīcā atradās Malienas (Vecgulbenes) revolucionārais kara tribunāls un strādnieku klubs. Tā darbība izcēlās ar pieņemto lēmumu bardzību un nāves sodu lielo daudzumu, bieži vien par niecīgiem pārkāpumiem - tika uzsākta 349 lietu izmeklēšana, tajās apvainotas 606 personas.

Redzama piemiņas skulptūra.

Atrodas Mārupes novadā, ceļa malā starp golfa klubu “Viesturi” un Božu ūdenskrātuvi.

Atceres piemineklis atklāts 2013. gadā. Apkārtnes vēsture ir saistīta ar Latvijas armijas cīņu pret Bermonta karaspēku 1919. gadā. Netālu no Adieņu mājām, kaujas pozīcijās bija izvietojušās Latvijas armijas vienības.

Neatkarības kara laikā, sarežģītās situācijas dēļ, Latvijas valdībai trūka iespējas apgādāt armiju ar nepieciešamo. Karavīru ārējais izskats un bruņojums bija dažāds. Visbiežāk, apgāde balstījās uz karavīru spēju sevi nodrošināt. 1919. gada septembra beigās un oktobra sākumā no Lielbritānijas pienāca Latvijas militārais pasūtījums, lai novērstu trūkumus. Pēc mēneša saņēma arī angļu bruņojuma piegādi. Līdz ar pirmajām kravām bija noprotams, ka Lielbritānija atbrīvojās no nevajadzīgiem krājumiem. Tika saņemti arī netīri, novalkāti apģērbi un apavi, kas bieži bija par mazu. Karavīriem nēsājot neatbilstošus apavus, tika radītas veselības problēmas, kas ietekmēja kaujasspējas. Apģērbs tika labots un pāršūts. Galvenais vienojošais simbols bija 11 staru saules zīme pie cepures un sarkanbaltsarkans apsējs ap kreiso roku.

Mūsdienās šeit var aplūkot vairākas atceres vietas. Objekti ir daļa no ainaviska, īpaši veidota vēstures un dabas pārgājienu maršruta.

A monument to the Freedom Fights can be seen at the battlefield of the 1st Liepaja Infantry Regiment, where in 1919 they fought against the "red" army. Not far from this place, Aleksandrs Lakstīgala, a countryman, was seriously wounded in the battle. A dead man was found near his home. Therefore, the location of this monument was chosen.

On August 16, 1936, the granite Victory Monument (it was called in the press of that time) was unveiled to commemorate the Freedom Fights, engraved with the words: “1. every corner of our homeland - so now ours. ” It was installed by the leadership of the Rēzekne Guard Regiment, consecrated by the senior pastor of the Rēzekne Guard Regiment Vincents Tomašūnas with the local parish dean Kalinka. The opening debts were accepted by Žanis Bach, the commander of the Zemgale division and a knight of the Lāčplēsis Order. In 1950, it was demolished and destroyed. On November 16, 1996, the restored monument was inaugurated, also in honor of the 78th anniversary of the proclamation of the Republic of Latvia.

Located in Rūjiena Center Square.

The three-meter-high image of an ancient Latvian guardian carved in gray Finnish granite, called the “Tālava trumpeter”, is placed on a three-meter-high granite pedestal, but the total height of the monument reaches 7.5 meters. In the initial sketches and models, K. Zemdega had placed a sword in his hands, which was later replaced by a trumpet. The monument was unveiled on August 15, 1937.

This monument reflects the difficult situation in the formation of our country and army, as well as in the assessment of these events. Immediately after the proclamation of the Latvian state, the Red Army invaded and the interim government of Kārlis Ulmanis established a refuge in Liepāja. In February 1919, with the help of the Estonian army, the liberation of Latvia from the north began and the first mobilization took place in the Rūjiena area for the Latvian troops formed in Tartu, which became the Northern Latvian Brigade under the command of Colonel Jorgis Zemitans. The Northern Latvian brigade fought not only against the Bolsheviks, but also against the Landeswehr and Iron Division in the battles of Cēsis. The soldiers of Northern Latvia, mobilized in the vicinity of Rūjiena, also fought in the subsequent battles for the War of Independence. After the war, the main laurels were won by General Jānis Balodis and the Southern Latvian Brigade he commanded, but he often forgot about the Northern Latvian Brigade. The monument to Rūjiena, which was planned in Rūjiena, was built for a long time, and the monument, unveiled in 1937, was officially popularized as a monument to the liberation of Rūjiena and the memory of fallen soldiers, not to mention the beginning of all regiments in Northern Latvia.

The monument is not only a popular sight for Latvian and Estonian tourists, which is to some extent a starting point for visiting several other places of remembrance of the War of Independence in Rūjiena, but "Tālavas taurētājs" is also a stopping place for Estonian and Latvian officials of various levels.

The monument to the liberation and fallen soldiers of Rūjiena, more commonly known as the “trumpet of Tālava”, was included in the list of cultural monuments protected by the state as an art monument of national significance on October 29, 1998 (monument protection registration number 4522).
