Excursion to the monument to the soldiers who fell in World War I in the Spāre Manor Park
Memorial site

Located in the territory of the Spāre Manor complex.

During World War I, the Spāre Manor housed a field hospital for the Russian army. The 24 soldiers who died there, including Latvian riflemen, are buried in the nearby fraternal cemetery. The monument was unveiled on October 6, 1935.

When establishing the memorial site (starting from the road), rows of linden trees were planted on both sides of the road. In 1935, all the improvement work in the area was carried out by Spāre students under the leadership of the school principal Kārlis and Alvīne Skalbergs.
Students from the Spāre Primary School in Amata Municipality are also currently involved in cleaning up the memorial site. The Cēsis 27th KB National Guards provide great support in these works.
A torchlight procession to the memorial site for those who fell in World War I has become a tradition, which is organized on November 11. This event is always led by the Cēsis 27th KB National Guards, and they are always accompanied by a chaplain. An indispensable part of the event is the celebratory volley.
