Rondell, Obelisk monument at Rennsteig crossroads in Oberhof, Germany.

The Rondell stands as an obelisk marking the intersection of Thuringian State Road 3247 and the Rennsteig hiking trail at 826 meters above sea level.

The monument commemorates the road construction from 1830 to 1832, directed by Gothaian captain Julius von Plänckner, connecting the duchies of Gotha and Coburg.

The Rondell marks a central meeting point where travelers, hikers, and local residents gather at the intersection of historical transportation routes.

Adjacent to the monument, visitors find a parking area with 200 spaces, offering direct access to multiple hiking trails and regional attractions.

The structure represents a collaboration between the Kingdom of Prussia and the Duchy of Gotha, enabling toll-free traffic to Prussian exclave territories.
