The 10 Best Monuments & Statues in Hesse, Germany

July 11, 2021 Giuseppe Pratt

Hesse (/ˈhɛsə/) or Hessia (German: Hessen [ˈhɛsn̩], Hessian dialect: Hesse [ˈhɛzə]) is a federal state (Land) of the Federal Republic of Germany, with just over six million inhabitants. The state capital is Wiesbaden; the largest city is Frankfurt am Main. Until the unification of Germany, the territory of Hesse was occupied by the Grand Duchy of Hesse, the Duchy of Nassau, the free city of Frankfurt and the Electorate of Hesse, known also as Hesse-Cassel. Due to divisions after World War II, the modern federal state does not cover the entire cultural region of Hesse, which includes both the State of Hesse and the area known as Rhenish Hesse (Rheinhessen) in the neighbouring state of Rhineland-Palatinate.

Hercules Monument

Reviewed By hallf - Bad Soden-Salmunster, Germany

A world heritage site , definatly worth visiting, take the bus to the top and walk down, unless you are feeling really strong and need a good climb, the water only runs on certain days but with or without it’s worth the effort.
