Viewcard "Monument to the Battle of the Nations Leipzig"

The Monument to the Battle of the Nations in the southeast of Leipzig was erected in memory of the Battle of Nations according to designs by the Berlin architect Bruno Schmitz and inaugurated on October 18, 1913. The sculptures were designed by the sculptors Christian Behrens and Franz Metzner.

With a height of 91 meters, it is one of the largest monuments in Europe and one of Leipzig's well-known landmarks. It forms a landmark with a distinctive silhouette that can be seen from afar and can be seen in clear air from Fichtelberg, 105 kilometers away, and around 300,000 people visit the monument each year.

At sunset the Völkerschlachtdenkmal turns red and is intended to remind of the bloody conflict in the Battle of Nations.
