This photo is of the monument erected in 1951 at the corner of highway 30 and provincial road number 243 to commemorate the Mennonites who settled the West Reserve, Manitoba in the 1870s. The inscription says: "This monument was erected on the seventy-fifth anniversary of the arrival of the Mennonite pioneers west of the Red River. It commemorates the faith and sacrifices of the early settlers who braved the wild treeless plains shunned by earlier immigrants. The peace and prosperity that these pioneers and their descendants have enjoyed here and the Post Road which marked by stakes started at Emerson passed this site at that time a stopping place and ran westward through the settlement." The monument was erected on the Schellenberg property which was in the village of Neuanlage. This site has been known as cairn corner.
