Memorial to the Red Army soldiers who fell in World War II

The original burial place for Red Army soldiers was determined in 1944 to be the very center of Lubāna - the intersection of Oskara Kalpaka Street, Tilta Street and Baznīcas Street. Later, in 1961, when traffic not only in the city but also in its immediate vicinity became more intense, the burials were moved, reburial of the remains of the fallen near the Aiviekste River (the current intersection of Stacija Street and Parka Street, in the direction of Aiviekste). A total of 450 Red Army soldiers are buried at this site, and there are plaques with the names of Red Army soldiers buried at this burial site in the monument.
