Langensalza memorial, War memorial in Eldagsen, Germany

The Langensalza Memorial features a square column with a helmet crown facing east toward Marienburg Castle and displays the Welf horse coat of arms.

The monument commemorates the Battle of Langensalza of June 27, 1866, where the Kingdom of Hanover forces achieved victory against Prussia before capitulating.

The memorial inaugurated in 1872 represents the local resistance to Prussian annexation, with citizens establishing it on private land after public construction was prohibited.

Located in the northeast section of the old town on Lange Strasse, the monument stands on a 66-square-meter plot donated by retired cavalry captain von Jeinsen.

The monument includes inscriptions commemorating three specific fallen soldiers from Eldagsen, Adensen, and Gestorf who perished in the Battle of Langensalza.
