How does this letter-form communicate its location?

This plaque was placed onto this one and only church in sandweiler in the year 1988. The church itself was built in 1976. The plaque explains a brief history of the construction. The church is Catholic, so it is not surprising that it uses a Roman serif font. This plaque is displayed on the exterior, so again to hold against the test of time, the serif font will help people who read it distringuish between the metal. Especially as the metal corrodes due to weather.
