After the death of Kaiser Wilhelm I, Kaiser Wilhelm monuments were commissioned in many places in Prussia. As one of the last major monuments, the personal and national monument places the emperor at the center of the nationally shaped culture of remembrance of the late 19th century, which placed the national communalization in the foreground. At the Porta Westfalica as a place that shapes the landscape, an educational program for national standardization was implemented with the Kaiser Wilhelm monument. The unification of the German Empire as a result of the Franco-Prussian War was celebrated here in the person of the Emperor.

今日一般に知られているヴィッテキンズブルク城は城風の飲食店ですが、ヴィッテキンズブルクという名前を持つ本当の要塞は鉄器時代のもので、2000年以上前に築かれました。 1893年に、真の城の、すでに自然に奪い返されていた基礎の残骸の間に、観光地とハイキングの目的地を建設することが決定されました。 そのため、まもなく住居兼酒場と厩舎が建設されました。わずか5年後、住居は取り壊され、同じ場所に現在の建物が建設されました。 木組みと、周囲の谷から非常によく見える特徴的な塔を持つ、この建物群全体は、今日、史跡として保護されています。
