    The Intersection Monument, erected in 1999, indicates that the 50th northern latitude and the 10th eastern longitude intersect at approximately the location of its installation (actually about 200 meters further north in a field). This "confluence point" is thus the only one in Germany where a principal latitude and a principal longitude intersect, meaning the degrees are multiples of 10.

    The actual confluence point is about 200 meters further north in a field. I was able to visit it in August 2023 by clearing my way through the corn, which was as tall as a man at the time (without damaging the plants, of course). I documented this visit here at the "Degree Confluence Project": confluence.org/confluence.php?visitid=23274
