The monumental Niederwald monument, visible from afar, has stood on Rüdesheimer Berg since its inauguration in 1883. It was built during the time of the German Empire and follows the same tradition as, for example, the Deutsches Eck in Koblenz or the Völkerschlachtdenkmal in Leipzig. The symbolism can be debated, but there is no doubt that the monument is an impressive sight from near and far. Many paths from the Rhine Valley lead up to Germania, one steeper than the other. You can avoid the worst inclines by not taking the shortest route up, but none of the many options are easy. You will be rewarded at the top with a spectacular view of the Rhine Valley, Bingen and the mouth of the Nahe. There is also a road and even a cable car leading up here, which explains the crowds of tourists on weekends.

The Niederwald Monument is located on the edge of the Landschaftspark Niederwald above the town of Rüdesheim am Rhein. At his feet are the vineyards of the Rüdesheimer Berg. The monument was to commemorate the unification of Germany in 1871. Source Wikipedia
