Kaisertempel, Observation temple in Eppstein, Germany
The Kaisertempel stands on a rocky outcrop on the western slope of Mount Staufen, featuring four Doric columns at its temple front.
Built between 1892 and 1894, the temple commemorates the German-French War of 1870-1871 and the establishment of the German Empire.
Inside the temple, cast iron medallion portrait reliefs display Wilhelm I and Friedrich III, along with busts of Otto von Bismarck and Helmut von Moltke.
The monument can be reached through a steep path or via a narrow asphalt road, with parking spaces primarily reserved for restaurant guests.
The construction cost 3,300 gold marks and included the creation of a true-to-nature wooden model before the actual building commenced.
