Monument to the War of Independence in Tori

Tori's memorial to the men of the parish who fell in the War of Independence was unveiled on 24 June 1923. In 1945 it was blown up. One local man managed to save the bas-relief from the ruins and kept it. In the national revival a new memorial was unveiled on the same spot on 30 September 1989.

Tori kihelkonna Vabadussõjas langenud meeste mälestussammas avati 24. juunil 1923. 1945. aastal sammas õhiti. Ühel kohalikul mehel õnnestus päästa rusude vahelt samba bareljeef ja hoida seda järgnevad aastakümned alles. Rahvusliku ärkamise ajal avati uus mälestussammas samas kohas 30. septembril 1989.
