Tips
On November 3rd, 1860, 100 years after the battle on the Süptitzer Heights, a
Monument unveiled. It is reminiscent of the battle of Torgau with the main scene on the Süptizer heights. The column carried a Prussian eagle, which was connected by chains to eight cannons. In 1952 the eagle as well as the chains and cannons were removed for metal procurement. In 1990 a new eagle was placed on the column.translated by
