König-Konrad-Denkmal, Cultural heritage monument at Bodenstein rock, Villmar, Germany.
König-Konrad-Denkmal is a sandstone statue positioned on a Lahnmarmor pedestal above the Lahn River at Bodenstein rock. The figure stands on a base inscribed with text that marks the monument's purpose and the ruler it commemorates.
The monument was erected in 1894 to honor a ruler who led the realm during a pivotal time in German history. Its placement in Villmar connects this commemoration to the local landscape and regional heritage.
The monument shows King Konrad in a gesture of crown transfer, reflecting his decision to pass power to another ruler. Visitors standing at this spot can sense the historical weight of this moment in German royal history.
The monument is reached by hiking trails from Villmar and provides views across the Lahn landscape. Expect uneven paths and sloped terrain, especially in wet conditions.
The sculptor Ludwig Cauer waived his fees for this project, substantially lowering construction costs. This generous gesture made it possible to realize an ambitious work in a striking landscape location.
