Leipzig: Völkerschlachtdenkmal Leipzig: Völkerschlachtdenkmal No Data

Description


The Völkerschlachtdenkmal (Monument to the battle of nations) is possibly about the ugliest monument ever built combining the very worst that concrete and communism can do, yet it was built in 1913 for which there can be no excuse! The one advantage is that, as it dominates the skyline, you can get great views from the top. You can climb all the way to the top, or for an extra €1 take the lift to the first viewing 2/3 of the way up.
