Hi all,
I found this old howitzer in a cemetery yesterday !
Caliber approx 15 cm.
From a book I read, it should be german of WW 1.
Here my first pic, more will follow !

Can someone identify it ?

I idly wrote "15cm. s.F.H. 1893" and then saw someone had written that. Now trying to find how to erase post
