Ehmsendenkmal, Memorial monument in Arnsberg, Germany
The Ehmsendenkmal is a pavilion-style domed structure situated on a rocky outcrop in the eastern section of Eichholz. The construction features solid walls and an open design that allows visitors to step inside and view the inscriptions.
A mountain hiking organization built this memorial in 1897 to honor the founder of the group established in 1891. The structure came into existence during a period when such monuments were becoming common ways to mark organizational identity.
The structure displays a golden inscription and depicts Ehmsen on its front face. These markings serve as a visual reminder of a key figure in local forestry and regional organizations.
The site is accessible via hiking trails and makes for a convenient stop during walks in the region. It remains open year-round and sits along well-marked paths in the area.
The structure is locally nicknamed the 'Whispering House' because its interior creates special acoustic effects. Visitors can experience this surprising sound quality themselves when standing inside.
