A monument at this site in the Municipality of Roblin commemorates St. John’s Lutheran Church which operated here. The first church building was used from 1916 to 1939 and its replacement served from 1939 to 1978. Behind the monument is the cross and tower of the latter church. A bell from the former church was moved to St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church in Roblin.
