Kaiser Wilhelm-Denkmal, Bronze equestrian statue at Altona city hall, Germany.

The Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial features a mounted figure of Emperor Wilhelm I on a high pedestal with allegorical statues at its base.

The monument, inaugurated in 1898, commemorates Wilhelm I, the first German Emperor who led the unification of Germany in the 19th century.

Two female figures on the monument's base represent Schleswig and Holstein, regions that joined German territory after the Danish-German War.

The memorial stands at coordinates 53.547472, 9.935417, near public transportation and within walking distance of Altona's main attractions.

Unlike Hamburg's central memorial, this statue faces away from the city hall, creating a distinct spatial arrangement with the surrounding architecture.
