Monument to the War of Independence in Tõrva
Memorialinis vieta

This monument is situated in the park adjacent to Tõrva Gymnasium. It was designed by Aleksander Eller, who also sculpted the bronze statue. The stonework was fashioned by stonemason Richard Toomingas. The monument was unveiled in Tõrva Town Park on 14 October 1928. During the Soviet occupation, a group of young locals is said to have decided to rescue the monument, and on 24 September 1940 hid its bronze statue in the Õhne River. It is uncertain what happened to the statue, since a replica was made as part of the restoration process based on old photos. The monument was unveiled anew on 23 June 1990.

The statue is colloquially referred to as Juku or Jack.
