Located next to the Museum in Tomslake BC is a cairn. The monuments stands in honour of the Sudeten German Social Democratic refugees who came to Canada in 1939. They fled from Hitler's Nazi Germany fate of persecution, imprisonment, torture and possible death in the Nazi-concentration camps of the Third Reich. They escaped and found asylum in Canada and joined with the settlers of Tomslake/Tupper to make a new way of life. The immigration of 518 settlers was impressive.
