The Weltkugel-Denkmal (Globe Monument) in Pöchlarn is one of the town's most striking modern landmarks. It is located directly on the Donaulände (Danube embankment), in the immediate vicinity of the Nibelungen Monument and the ship landing stage. Since Pöchlarn is described in the Nibelungenlied as an important junction between West (Burgundy) and East (Etzelhife/Hungary), the globe represents the town's historical role as a bridge between cultures. It also refers to the global trade relations of Pöchlarn's industry (such as the glass production of Vetropack or the building materials of Lasselsberger), whose products are literally exported all over the world.
