Two stone (sandstone) monuments dedicated to soldiers and officers who died during the Prussian-Austrian War of 1866. The larger of them (located on the right, viewed from the road) commemorates three officers, four non-commissioned officers and forty soldiers of the Royal Prussian 1st Poznan Infantry Regiment No. 18, who died on June 29, 1866 in the fighting at Jičín and on July 3 of that year in the battle of courts; classicistic in the form of a monument, the upper part of which is supported on four Doric columns, crowned with anti-Romanesque panoply, from the front side the dates of both clashes (29.6 and 3.7.1866) are included in the laurel wreath. The smaller, simple in the form of an obelisk crowned with a cross, was funded by Count Erwin Schlick 24 years after the war (it shows the date 1890) to commemorate all the soldiers killed in the fighting on June 29, 1866. Near the car park on the other side of the road, there was an interesting signpost with plates on which were placed the names of other battlefields of this war, located in the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Germany, giving the distance to them expressed in kilometers.
