    There are two registered monuments on Toppiusplatz: the Toppius stone and the Lendorff monument. The square was the traditional gathering place of the miners.

    The square is immediately southwest of Georgsplatz. It was laid out in terraces around 200 years ago. In the past it was used to lay the hunting track. Even today, a Zackelschau is held there regularly, in which the shed antlers of the Deister deer are shown.
    The Wennigser Mark local community uses the space for events such as the annual jazz brunch or church services.

    The Toppius monument commemorates the royal court hunter Toppius, who was killed by a poacher in a scuffle. It was initially located further down by the trout pond and was moved to its current location in 1901. It is a stone about one meter high with the inscription:

    To the memory of the royal hunter Toppius. On February 28, 1807, mortally wounded in the line of duty at this spot, he died on the 2nd day in Wennigsen.
