On the main square of Grafenschachen there has been a Peace Memorial since 1997. As part of a local landscape redesign, the old war memorial had to be removed, and the local authorities decided to erect a memorial for peace, with remembrance also intended for the victims of both World Wars. The memorial was realized by the artist Manuela Fritz. It shows humans "as a microcosm in analogy to the universe" and their transience, which is embodied by the symbols of life and death.
