The German War of 1866 was the military conflict between the German Confederation under the leadership of Austria and the Kingdom of Prussia and its allies. Prussia's victory led to the dissolution of the German Confederation. It was replaced by the German Empire, founded in 1871. The causes of the war lay in the Austro-Prussian dispute over the leadership role in the German Confederation. The decisive battle against Austria was finally won by the united Prussian armies on July 3, 1866 near Königgrätz in Bohemia - although the fighting continued until July 26, 1866.
On July 4, 1866 - one day after the Battle of Königgrätz - the first major clash between Prussian units and Bavarian troops of the German Confederation took place near Roßdorf in the Rhön. The Nebelberg between Roßdorf and Wiesenthal was particularly hotly contested. On that day, 119 Bavarian and 58 Prussian soldiers were killed. The dead soldiers were buried in the cemeteries of Dermbach and Roßdorf. (…from information board)
