The Grafschaftsdenkmal, popularly known as the Eagle Monument, is a monument in the Jöllenbeck district of Bielefeld. It was unveiled on the afternoon of July 16, 1909 and was intended to commemorate the 300 years that the County of Ravensberg belonged to Brandenburg-Prussia and to the House of Hohenzollern. In the morning of the same day, the linen weaver memorial had already been unveiled in Bielefeld. The county monument is still a landmark of Jöllenbeck today.

The monument is centrally located at a traffic junction (roundabout) in Jöllenbeck. The neighboring bus stop is called Adlerdenkmal, a neighboring house used to house the Adler pharmacy.

More recently, the erection of the monument in 1909 is seen as an expression of the zeitgeist (“With God for King and Fatherland”) and “active Jöllenbeck conservatism”.
