Summary edit

Description

Statue of those, who fell for their conviction After the collapse of the provisional government of Russia both the labour unionists and the bourgeoisine and peasants founded civil guards to maintain public order as they had already done in 1905 once earlier. As the result of this the escalation after led into armed conflicts. The government, the Senate of Finland, which had declared Finland independent 6th December, 1917, declared the protecting guards the official army. After that the labour movement began a mutiny against the Senate, which resulted to a civil war from the end of January to the beginning of May, 1918. The Senate was assisted by the Germans, whose main force landed in Hanko in the beginning of April, 1918 and the support force in Loviisa. The support troop led by colonel Otto von Brandenstein was heading to Lahti. One battallion went through Myrskyla and Orimattila towards Lahti. The main battle of the Myrskyla's red guards took place 13th April, 1918 in Orimattila. Practically no prisoners of war were taken.

Because of the controversial interpretation of the result of the mutiny to the process of becoming independent, the deceased reds had their memorial stones in the cemeteries generally in the 1960's, often projected by the labour party local committees.
