Student Company of the Cēsis Brigade Monument, made by
the sculptor Jānis Rozenbergs (1900-1966). The student’s brigade participated
in the War of Independence of Latvia in 1919. Unveiled on 26 May 1938 and dismantled
by the Soviet regime in 1950, the monument was restored by the sculptress Maija
Baltiņa (Rīga, 7 April 1941) and unveiled again on 11 November 1992.
