Wilhelm II of Germany Obelisk in Haifa, German imperial obelisk in Haifa, Israel.
The stone obelisk stands near Yefe Nof street, marking the location where Kaiser Wilhelm II visited Haifa during his journey to Jerusalem in 1898.
The monument, initially constructed in 1910, underwent destruction during British occupation in 1918 and remained in ruins until its restoration in 1982.
The obelisk reflects the German influence in the region during the Ottoman period, representing a connection between European powers and the Middle East.
Visitors can access the monument by following directional signs from downtown Haifa, with an old Turkish cannon displayed near the structure.
The restoration of the obelisk in 1982 coincided with the visit of Wilhelm II's grandson, adding another layer to the German-Israeli relationship.
