Dusenddüwelswarf, Memorial monument in Eggstedt, Germany
The Dusenddüwelswarf monument stands at the center of an elevated platform, featuring a massive glacial boulder supported by four square columns.
The memorial, inaugurated on February 17, 1900, marks the 400th anniversary of the Battle of Hemmingstedt between local farmers and Danish forces.
The monument displays the northern inscription 'WAHR DI GARR DE BUR DE KUMT', representing the determination of local farmers against external forces.
Visitors can access historical information about the Battle of Hemmingstedt through texts and dioramas in the adjacent pavilion near the monument.
The central boulder, known as 'Goos-Ei', weighs between 25 to 40 tons and was transported from Barlter Vierth for the monument construction.
