    "In grateful memory of the commitment of many men and women for freedom and human rights in the Baden Revolution of 1848-1849, this memorial was erected by the city of Waghäusel to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Waghäusel and the skirmish of Wiesental."

      Since 1999, the Freedom Monument in Waghäusel has commemorated one of the decisive defeats of the revolutionaries in 1849 against Prussian troops. Today one finds on site again an active reminder of democratic traditions.
      ...
      The monument itself is an obelisk symbolizing the constitution, embraced by a man and a woman, with the inscription "Unity - Law - Freedom" on the front, "40 years of the Basic Law of the Federal Republic of Germany" on the back.
