The site is entered via a wrought iron gate, and a spiral stone staircase leads to the "Ehrenhof" [Courtyard of Honour] as Alfons Fritz called it, a rotunda with refectory and simple cross. Here outdoor mass can also be held. Further steps along the late mediaeval town fortifications head toward a dual-winged wrought iron gate that leads into the crypt. The walls of the crypt are inscribed with the names of fallen soldiers and a simple sarcophagus of red marble is located in the centre. The crypt is exited on the rear via further steps that can also be closed with a wrought iron gate. The special feature of the memorial is its style of design. Compared to many other war memorials from the same period, the Bludenz memorial dispenses with the typically, usually heroic attributes such as eagles and lions; the site also depicts no dying, kneeling or dead soldiers with weapons and steel helmets.
