Minensucher-Denkmal, Naval memorial in Cuxhaven, Germany.
A stone monument with a World War I sea mine stands 4.5 meters high near the Old Love pier in Cuxhaven harbor.
The German Imperial Navy established minesweeping forces in Cuxhaven, stationing 300 minesweeping vessels by the end of World War I.
The monument design by Lieutenant Captain Erich Bodanowitz represents the seabed with a mine anchor from which a mine rises upward.
The Minesweeper Memorial Association maintains the monument and conducts regular preservation work to protect its structural integrity.
The memorial features inscriptions commemorating fallen minesweepers, including text from the German Mine Sweeping Administration.
