Peter-Altmeier-Denkmal in Koblenz, Monument in Koblenz, Germany

The Peter-Altmeier-Denkmal stands six meters tall and four meters wide, constructed with red sandstone blocks near the German Corner along the Moselle River.

The monument honors Peter Altmeier, who served as Prime Minister of Rhineland-Palatinate from 1947 to 1969, leading the region through post-war reconstruction.

Four distinct sandstone blocks in the monument represent the different regions that merged to form the modern state of Rhineland-Palatinate after World War II.

The monument, situated at Peter-Altmeier-Ufer, features wheelchair accessibility and connects to multiple hiking trails ranging from 4 to 28 kilometers in length.

The portal-like structure, designed by artist Horst Schwab in 1979, required a replacement of its memorial plaque due to a spelling error shortly after installation.
