The Marian monument was erected in honor of the royal mother Marie of Bavaria (mother of King Ludwig II of Bavaria). This was her favorite place on the Alpsee. From here, away from the mass tourism of Hohenschwangau, you have a wonderful view of the lake.
The following inscription can be found on the monument:
In grateful memory of HER MAIESTÆT the QUEEN MOTHER MARIE of BAVARIA by I. v. S.

When the weather is nice, you have a great view of these mountains from this point of view.

If the weather is good, you have the best view of the mountains from this end of the lake.
