Monument to the soldiers of the 10th Aizpute Infantry Regiment of the Zemgale Division
Memorial site

Located on the northeastern side of Daugavpils Fortress Garden.

The monument to the 44 soldiers of the 10th Aizpute Infantry Regiment of the Zemgale Division who fell in the Latvian War of Independence was unveiled in the interwar period - on November 14, 1924, when the Latvian army was stationed in the Daugavpils fortress. The monument was created according to the project of engineer Vilhelms Rīmers with money donated by the soldiers, officers of the regiment and the residents of Aizpute. In the thirties, the territory around the monument was improved, it was fenced, hanging weeping ash trees were planted, flower beds, lawns and lilacs were created.

During the Soviet occupation, the monument was rebuilt: initially, a pedestal for a bust of Stalin was placed on it, and in the 1950s, a bust of Lenin was placed on it, which was later moved to another location.

The renovated monument was unveiled on November 14, 2017. The monument was renovated at the initiative of the association “Daugavpils mantojums” with funds from the Ministry of Defense, the State Cultural Capital Fund, the Daugavpils City Municipality and residents.

In 2024, the territory of the Fortress Garden, where the monument is located, was reconstructed.
