There is no problem for Gentiles to visit memorials (in general) that are out in the open, with flowers or otherwise.
Visiting memorials or anything else inside a house of idol worship is problematic, and should only be considered if there is some overriding specific need to do so on a temporary basis. This is explained on Part II of "The Divine Code," on "The Prohibition of Idol Worship."
For example, if the memorial is made specifically for honor or commemoration of some type of idol or idolatrous religion, it should be avoided unless there is some overriding need: for example, if a student of art or architecture needs to view its craftsmanship as a requirement for his/her education degree or trade.
