Kot že na Brdcah v neposredni bližini Cerknega, so se tudi na Lajšah tekom druge svetovne vojne dogajale mračne stvari, ki jih danes, če ne bi bilo spominskih obeležij, ne bi niti slutili.
During the World War II. the Cerkno region was heavily stricken by war different war events. As on the hillox Brdce near Cerkno there was a war drama going on also on Lajše.
Februarja 1944 so bili na Lajšah, pod streli pripadnikov OK VOS, usmrčeni domnevni pripadniki bele garde, ki naj bi bili krivi izdaje lokacije partijske šole januarja 1944 v Cerknem. Trupla skupine ljudi, z duhovnikoma Piščancem in Slugo na čelu, so bila po usmrtitvi odvržena v brezno (→ WP ABYSS) na Lajšah.
In February 1944 15 people acussed of collaborating with anticomunists were shot to death and thrown into a nearby abyss (→ WP ABYSS).
Ob 50. obletnici dogodka so 15 žrtvam vojnega nasilja postavili spominsko obeležje (→ WP MONMNT).
At the 50th anniversary of the event, in memory of the 15 victims a monument (→ WP MONMNT) was built.
