The Hermann Monument commemorates the victory of the Germans under the leadership of Arminius the Cherusci about the Romans at 9 AD. Due to excavations is now believed that the battle took place much further north. The more than 50 meters high monument is visible from afar. It was built in the 1870s and is still a magnet for visitors. Right next to the monument is gastronomy.
