Graf von Moltke's Favorite Spot

Field Marshal Graf von Moltke's favorite place was here.
In addition, a beautiful trail leads along the Großer Küchensee.
From here you have beautiful views of the Küchensee and the distant Ratzeburg. Unfortunately only in winter, otherwise the view is mostly obscured by the leaves of the trees. At the time of the count, the trees were even lower, so that he could always enjoy wonderful views here.
Moltke had never officially been in Ratzeburg. But he had visited his sister who lived there several times. One of his favorite walks there was the path around the small Küchensee to the Waldesruh restaurant. In the immediate vicinity of the restaurant, a monument was erected in a large granite boulder on a field stone substructure. It shows the gilded inscription: Field Marshal Graf Moltke's favorite place. 1853-1888. The year numbers reminded of his first and last visit to Ratzeburg.wikiwand.com/de/Ratzeburg
