The Nassau State Monument is a significant monument in Wiesbaden, located on Biebricher Allee. Dedicated to Duke Adolph of Nassau (later Grand Duke of Luxembourg), it was inaugurated in 1909 to honor the House of Nassau. It features reliefs of citizens and soldiers symbolizing loyalty and representing the European dimension of the House of Nassau. It stands on Adolfshöhe, near the Henkell sparkling wine cellars, and was designed by the sculptor Fritz Gerth.

Directly opposite the Henkell Sektkellerei on Biebricher Allee is the Nassau state monument designed by Fritz Gerth, who was born in Wiesbaden. It rises 15 meters above the more than three and a half hectare park area. Park and monument are 100 years old this year. The monument, which shows the last reigning Duke Adolph at a young age, is being restored by the city. The park and the memorial are thanks to the initiative and donation of an ex-major in the former Nassau army: Richard Kolbe.
