Eichendorffbank, Stone bench in Klausberge, Halle, Germany

The Eichendorffbank consists of a semicircular stone bench with a central obelisk displaying verses from the poem 'Bei Halle' in the Klausberge hills.

In May 1805, brothers Wilhelm and Joseph von Eichendorff arrived in Halle as young students, leading to the creation of this commemorative bench in 1899.

The bench serves as a meeting point for annual celebrations on March 10th, marking Eichendorff's birthday with musical performances and community gatherings.

Visitors can find the bench at coordinates 51.507075° N, 11.957636° E, offering views of the Saale River and Giebichenstein Castle.

The central obelisk contains engraved verses from Eichendorff's poem, which he wrote about Halle in 1840, long after his student years in the city.
