König-Konrad-Denkmal, Cultural heritage monument at Bodenstein rock, Villmar, Germany.

The sandstone statue of King Konrad I stands 2.32 meters tall on a Lahnmarmor pedestal above the Lahn River in Villmar.

King Konrad I ruled from 911 to 918 and transferred the German crown to Henry of Saxony through the Weilburg Testament before his death.

The monument depicts King Konrad in the gesture of crown transfer, with an inscription on the pedestal commemorating his reign and decisions.

Several hiking trails lead to the monument, which offers views of the Lahn River and includes nearby seating areas for visitors.

The construction cost of 7,000 marks in 1894 was reduced when sculptor Ludwig Cauer waived his studio fees for this historical project.
