Niederwald Monument

This monument is situated in one of the most beautiful places of Germany called Rudesheim. Surrounded by lush green vineyards and easily accessible by a cable car which provides views which will stimulate anyone for years after their visit. A mist visit for anyone going to Germany.

While returning we took the walking trail which passes through the vineyards, slowly ascending from the beautiful birds eye views to the green surroundings of the vineyards.
The entire trail is a few kilometres long, and is worth taking.

Niederwald Landscape Park near the Rhein river in Rüdeshiem, Germany. This is another spot where you can take your family for a chill and relaxing tour. In order to go to the top, we gotta take the tram which was free. The view was breathtaking and don’t get me started on the amazing interactions with the people there. It was lovely experience and I hope to go back very soon :)

A perfect getaway from the busy frankfurt. A lovely walk through the Old village and a cable car ride to the top. A walk through the woods. It is a perfect day to spend.

I came here expecting to see something cool, but what i felt being there with my brother who is German and explaining the significance of this place. It was ver moving. I will be back to Germany and to see the Mother.

Great place for a nice long walk or even a bike ride. Mix with beautiful forest parts and an old building with a large monument which was a highlight for me. Not forgetting the view. Amazing

What a beautiful place to visit, a quick ride up the mountain in the cable cars and a lovely walk around to see the monument, the views are breathtaking

This is, quite simply, a stunning memorial to the Franco-Prussian War. And if you are unclear as to the details surrounding this major conflict between the Second French Empire and the North German Confederation, oh my - just do a quick bit of research - this war forever changed the face of the European Continent and shaped it into what we more or less see today. This war changed everything. And this monument is beyond gorgeous and, whether you would have been on either side of the battlefield, this monument is meaningful.

This place is worth the time and effort to visit. You can actually walk up to this place from the town of Rudesheim. The cable car is the way to go up. If you have the time, you can walk Babcock down through the vineyards with the constant beautiful scenery of the Rhine River as you walk down.
The history of this place is explained in several languages when you get up to the monument.

Wonderful view of the Rhein Valley!! And a beautiful walk to the monument. Recommend!!

awesome-beautiful-amazing views and wonderful place to be with family or friends. One can take cable cars or walk or cycle up to reach the famous monument. Lots of benches to sit and enjoy the view. Very popular tourist attractions. 👌

We loved the hike to the monument. Only 87 meters above sea level and just over 200 stairs, it was a perfect balance of exercise and enjoyment.
A must see if you are visiting.

Loved the location and the sculpture. The walk after that was a wonderful experience

A very impressive monument built in the late 1800’s to commentate the unification of Germany. THIS IS NOT A WAR MEMORIAL .
There is ample paid parking on a very well organised and maintained site which is well lit and has a lot of seating offering fantastic views of the Rhein river and of course the memorial itself. There’s a very good restaurant here on site with a good selection and outdoor seating area too. The memorial is also accessible to and from Rüdesheim via a cable car lift.

Very beautiful views from the monument. The monument itself is very impressive and lovely to look at. I appreciated the informative signs in front, describing the history of the monument.

Great history Great place to visit, especially taking your family and friends to for a sightseeing. Its Never a disappointment. With such view 😍 its breath taking!

You still have to queue even if you buy tickets in advance but its not a long wait. The ride on the individual cable cars is spectacular. The view at the monument is amazing and the stories behind it are fascinating. It's very peaceful up there. Gift shop and snacks available. The greatest Elvis filmed in number 76. We also came down in number 76.

Beautiful place, totally worth it. You can reach it using the cable car or you can hike up to the place. It offers lovely views for the river, the valley and the vineyards. The monument is magnificent. The sculptures and the relief work are beautifully done.

A very beautiful, hilarious and mighty monument...you simply must respect it, the builders and creators as well, you must love the place. The view is breathtaking, it is picturesque and just overwhelming...the river Rhein, the little town, the small hills around...everything....and if you decide to walk up to it through the wineyard you will enjoy it even more (just take enough water)

The view is breathtaking. The monument is worthy to see. United we win. The historical perspective is one of the kind.. bucket list checked.!!

Located in Rudescheim right on the Rhine River. Cable car ride to the top is amazing! As you glide up over the vineyards you can see for miles. Cost was about 10 Euros pp. Only 2 adults per car. You can also drive to the top. Monument is magnificent but you MUST read the panels to learn about the historical significance. Cafe & snack shop at the top too.
