Monument to the War of Independence in Vändra
Memorialinis vieta

This monument was unveiled in the borough of Vändra on 24 June 1922. It was designed by master stonemason Oskar Goldberg. The monument was demolished in 1941. The person responsible is thought to have been the local bell-ringer. It was partially restored during the German occupation: the intact upper part with the depiction of the Cross of Liberty was mounted on a brick base. In 1945 the monument was disassembled and removed to an unknown location. It was eventually found in the late 1980s on the site of the former state-owned farm in Pärivere. A temporary version of the monument was unveiled on 24 June 1989. Some sources claim the upper part of the obelisk with the depiction of the Cross of Liberty was found in the church shed in 2000, allowing for the final unveiling of the restored monument in 2008.
