    The Deutsches Eck is an artificially heaped headland in Koblenz at the mouth of the Mosel in the Rhine. In 1897 a monumental equestrian statue of the first German Emperor Wilhelm I was erected here, which was designed as a memorial to the German Reich in 1871. The Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial commissioned by the Rhine Province was in the tradition of many memorials erected between 1888 and 1918 in German-speaking countries.
    The pedestal of the statue, which was badly damaged during the Second World War, served from 1953 to 1990 as a memorial to German unity. A replica of the group of sculptures was put back on the pedestal in 1993 after previous controversial discussions.
    The Deutsches Eck is the landmark of the city of Koblenz and a major attraction for tourists. On the left bank of the Rhine branch here the Rhine plants (Konrad-Adenauer-Ufer), on the right bank of the Moselle the Peter-Altmeier-Ufer. Wikipedia

        One can argue about the historical significance of the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial at the "Deutsches Eck", but it is already impressive.
