The Victory Column is in Babelsberg Park, at a vantage point overlooking the Friedrich-Wilhelm-Höhe. The Generalsbank is also just a few meters away from the Victory Column.
King Wilhelm I - later Emperor - had the Victory Column erected in 1866. The column commemorates the victory of the Prussians against the Austrians in 1866.

The victory of the Prussians in the Austro-Prussian War of 1866 was the reason for King Wilhelm I to erect the column in Babelsberg Park. The Babelsberg is 77m high and is located in the park of the same name. Wide view over the Havel to Potsdam
