The sculptor Friedrich Wilhelm Volke, who worked in Karlsruhe, designed the monument.
It was inaugurated in 1891 and dedicated to the fallen in the Franco-Prussian War of 1870/71. A red sandstone obelisk protrudes from a pedestal. The plaque originally attached to the back of the memorial with the Sinsheim war participants was melted down during the Second World War.
