Monument to the War of Independence in Noarootsi
Memorial site

This monument, situated in the cemetery in the village of Hosby, comprises an obelisk on a plinth, both made of fieldstones, crowned with a cast-iron Cross of Liberty. A black granite tablet in Estonian and Swedish is mounted on the front of the obelisk in memory of those from Noarootsi who had fallen or gone missing. It was unveiled on 10 June 1935 before being destroyed in 1948 during the Soviet occupation. The Cross of Liberty on top of the monument was later mounted on the right-hand wall of the side entrance vestibule at Noarootsi church. The monument was unveiled anew on 24 June 1990.
