The Scharnhorst monument Wennigsen is a monument in the municipality of Wennigsen. The plant, built in 1913, is located between the core town of Wennigsen and the Waldkater on thelee brinkstrasse, which is also known as Forstmeister-Bank-Allee in this section.

The building is a bastion-like Monument to the Battle of the Nations. It bears the inscription In memory 1813-1913. It was dedicated to Gerhard von Scharnhorst. The memorial was donated by the Wennigsen Transport and Beautification Association in 1896. Before the monument was erected, there were Rottekuhlen. Friedrich Wüllner describes the inauguration of the monument in his local history. In 1913 all the school children in the town should have taken part and bonfires would have burned on the hills around the town. Like numerous other Scharnhorst monuments in Germany, it was erected to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Battle of the Nations near Leipzig. At that time, a peace oak was planted in neighboring Evestorf.

In 2008, the monument, made of local sandstone, was restored with the help of volunteers from the Wennigsen traffic and beautification association.
