The Landshut sculptor Karl Reidel created the memorial at Setzensack, which commemorates 67 deaths in a Protestant old people's and nursing home in Tormersdorf on the Neisse. 400 residents of this home fled from the Soviet army in February 1945 and spent weeks travelling in freight wagons. In the end, around 100 of them arrived in Landshut and finally found accommodation in the old, disused brewery of the castle in Deutenkofen on Good Friday, March 30, 1945. Weakened by the illness and the strain of the escape, a total of 67 of them died there between now and 1949. The dead were registered at the Adlkofen registry office. Since the church cemetery in Adlkofen was overcrowded, an alternative plot had to be found. The mayors of Adlkofen and Deutenkofen agreed to bury the dead on a meadow in Setzensack. To this day, the municipality of Adlkofen commemorates the dead from Thormersdorf every year on Remembrance Day at the Setzensack memorial.
