Among Bory Jenő’s late war memorials is the heroes’ memorial at Kajászó, installed in the centre of the village on 5 September 1939.
Its creation was preceded by lengthy preparation. Commemoration of the war dead was proposed as early as 1923, but the leaders and residents of the small settlement debated whether to erect a monumental statue or a more modest memorial plaque. The village ultimately chose the statue.
The central figure is a bronze soldier, related to Bory Jenő’s well-known types of heroic memorial. The statue conveys dignity and restrained gravity; it represents not the momentum of battle but the memory of sacrifice. The bronze casting was carried out by Ferenc Sárközy.
It is notable that the work was made for an exceptionally small settlement, yet represents the same high artistic standard as Bory’s memorials erected in larger towns. It remains one of the village’s most important historical memorial sites and a focal point of community memory.
