Landesdenkmal, Monument at Adolfshohe in Wiesbaden, Germany.
The Landesdenkmal features a large obelisk with a bronze statue of Duke Adolf in military uniform standing at its base, surrounded by decorative friezes.
The memorial was inaugurated on October 26, 1909, to honor Duke Adolf of Nassau, who later became Grand Duke of Luxembourg after Prussia annexed Nassau in 1866.
Citizens of Wiesbaden collected over 100,000 marks for this monument, demonstrating their commitment to preserving Nassau's identity within the Prussian province of Hessen-Nassau.
The memorial occupies 1,100 square meters on a rectangular grass plateau bordered by walls on three sides, with small obelisks positioned at the corners.
The inscription on the monument received an addition in 1985 to acknowledge Duke Adolf's role as Grand Duke of Luxembourg, reflecting the European dimension.
