Waldersee Monument, Military memorial statue in Eilenriede Park, Hanover, Germany.
The stone monument depicts Field Marshal Alfred von Waldersee standing in a military coat, holding a field marshal's baton and shield on Hohenzollernstraße.
Sculptor Bernhard Hoetger created this memorial between 1914 and 1915, and the city of Hanover unveiled it on March 21, 1915 during World War I.
