The monument commemorates the racing driver Juan Manuel Fangio, who won the German Grand Prix held on the Nürburgring Nordschleife three times - each time for different teams: in 1954, 1956 and 1957.

Juan Manuel Fangio was an Argentinian racing driver. He shaped the early years of Formula 1 and became world champion in this class five times – a record that was only surpassed by Michael Schumacher in 2003.

In 2002, this life-size bronze sculpture weighing several tons was installed on the grounds of the Nürburgring, depicting Fangio next to his Mercedes-Benz W 196, with which he became world champion in 1955.

Beautiful - almost romantic - rest area.

Unfortunately, the information sign was damaged, but the view is still wonderful.

A carbon dioxide source (mofette) in the forest near Gelenberg, accessible via a beautiful forest path, for example on the themed circular trail "What was really true". Many years ago, it was believed that the release of carbon dioxide was a sign of extinct volcanism. But this is not the case: the molten rock in the earth's interior (magma) contains not only mineral components but also gases such as carbon dioxide, water vapor, sulfur dioxide, fluorine and chlorine. Depending on how warm it is and how much pressure is created, they escape through cracks in the earth's crust. The carbon dioxide source in the Gelenberg forest is a mofette. The volcanic carbon dioxide rises from a depression filled with rainwater and causes the water surface to constantly erupt. The unique thing about it is that the mineral water deposits form the natural carbon dioxide of the Volcanic Eifel, which is the basis of the local sparkling water industry.
