And for something on the wrong side of the tracks and closer to current events
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yser_Tower#/media/File:IJzertorenPanorama.jpgThe Ijzertoren originated as a monument to fallen Flemish soldiers post WW I. However, it got coopted by nationalist mythology and became a rallying point for the collaboration movement in the run up to, and during, WW II. The "Stone Incivique" was dynamited in the wake of the German defeat*. The remnants are what you see in the foreground of the photo. The monument in the background came in its place a short while later.
However, blowing it up only strengthened the resolve of the tribe and it became the focus of an annual nationalist ritual where they lamented every slap in the face received since 1302. Officially a commemoration of WW I, it has always had strong white supremacist overtones. e.g. until the fall of Apartheid, the Zuid Afrikaans national anthem was always on the songsheet.
The movement has always had strong political connections and had several splits and mergers along "purity of essence" lines. The official WW I commemoration eventually banned the brown overtones, but shortly after an unofficial event sprung up for the true faithful.
And until recently, there was also an annual gathering of the Birch Cross society, the overarching collective of East Front fighters, complete with "Meine Ehre Ist Treue" banner.
* Officially, the demolition crew was never caught but a while back, a former Army sergeant claimed credit in name of his platoon.
