In the courtyard of the Church of St. John of Nepomuk in Grūšlaukė stands a monumental cross and commemorative plaque dedicated to the partisans of the Kardo Unit of the Žemaičiai District who perished in battles from 1944 to 1965. It honors Juozas Galdikas (1917–1948), Vladas Galdikas (1922–1948), Aleksas Jonkus (1915–1946), Barbora Kniežaitė (1926–1952), Elena Kniežaitė (1928–1951), Pranas Končius (1913–1965), Kazimieras Kontrimas (1913–1952), Stasys Lisauskas (1927–1949), and Antanas Šverys (1924–1948).
This memorial, unveiled on May 16, 1999, reflects the Grūšlaukė community's deep respect for the freedom fighters. Its establishment was led by Stanislovas Burba and Adolfas Kontrimas, the latter being the creator of the cross.
