Niederwald Landscape Park near the Rhein river in Rüdeshiem, Germany. This is another spot where you can take your family for a chill and relaxing tour. In order to go to the top, we gotta take the tram which was free. The view was breathtaking and don’t get me started on the amazing interactions with the people there. It was lovely experience and I hope to go back very soon :)

I came here expecting to see something cool, but what i felt being there with my brother who is German and explaining the significance of this place. It was ver moving. I will be back to Germany and to see the Mother.

A perfect getaway from the busy frankfurt. A lovely walk through the Old village and a cable car ride to the top. A walk through the woods. It is a perfect day to spend.

We loved the hike to the monument. Only 87 meters above sea level and just over 200 stairs, it was a perfect balance of exercise and enjoyment. A must see if you are visiting.

Amazing place that will take your breath away with the river views. Must do the Romantic Tour!

Exquisit View Point, and not just one! Even by not exactly sunny weather was a great place to do a small walking tour. Also despite the corona situation there's a nice cafe with the warm drinks and warm food "to go" and the modern WC near the parking, you have to pay for it 1€ though...

This is, quite simply, a stunning memorial to the Franco-Prussian War. And if you are unclear as to the details surrounding this major conflict between the Second French Empire and the North German Confederation, oh my - just do a quick bit of research - this war forever changed the face of the European Continent and shaped it into what we more or less see today. This war changed everything. And this monument is beyond gorgeous and, whether you would have been on either side of the battlefield, this monument is meaningful.

If you have physical limitations, take the chair lift. If not, it's worth the uphill hike through the vineyards. There is no shade on the hike up, so be prepared, take water. The sun beats down on you for a while. The monument is stunning and grand, not to mention the view over the Rhein. There's a restaurant at the top of the hill, in case you need refreshments after the hike. This was my 2nd time visiting so it was worth seeing more than once.

Very beautiful views from the monument. The monument itself is very impressive and lovely to look at. I appreciated the informative signs in front, describing the history of the monument.

Magnificent view of winding Rhine river and endless vineyards on the opposite side in Rhineland-Palatinate. Parking is located directly by the viewing place and every time we visited, free spots were available to park our car. However the parking fee is ridiculous! Charges 4 EUR per day even if visited for a short period of time. There is a possibility to reach Niederwald by cableway from Rüdesheim but we have never tried it. Right next to the parking lot there is a small restaurant / café offering basic snacks and drinks. Toilets were nice and clean. There are actually two viewing places to visit - Niederwald Temple and Niederwald Monument. The firstly named offers views of Rüdesheim and Rhine river all the way up to Mainz. Niederwald Monument, located two minutes away, overlooks the city of Bingen and Rhine Valley. Both views are absolutely stunning and one of the best in the region! The Niederwald Monument, commemorating the Unification of Germany is a large and impressive statue surrounded by meticulously maintained grass and lavender fields, which were unfortunately not yet in bloom during our last visit. Information boards were located near the base of the statue, available both in German and English, to learn something about the historical significance of the place. Stairs and platforms under the statue offer a great place to sit, relax and simply enjoy the atmosphere. A small souvenir shop selling postcards and magnets is located right behind the statue. This is a regular stop on our itinerary when friends or family comes to visit! Last visited in May 2022.

Stunning views. Not suitable if you have bad mobility. Watch children very closely as railing width wide enough for a child to fall through. Shop and bar/food closses at 6pm. Last car at 7pm. Wear warm top. Cablecar very windy.

Wonderful view of the Rhein Valley!! And a beautiful walk to the monument. Recommend!!

awesome-beautiful-amazing views and wonderful place to be with family or friends. One can take cable cars or walk or cycle up to reach the famous monument. Lots of benches to sit and enjoy the view. Very popular tourist attractions. 👌

Great place for a nice long walk or even a bike ride. Mix with beautiful forest parts and an old building with a large monument which was a highlight for me. Not forgetting the view. Amazing

You still have to queue even if you buy tickets in advance but its not a long wait. The ride on the individual cable cars is spectacular. The view at the monument is amazing and the stories behind it are fascinating. It's very peaceful up there. Gift shop and snacks available. The greatest Elvis filmed in number 76. We also came down in number 76.

Wonderful view of the Rhein as well as Rüdesheim. If the lines aren’t too long, highly recommended taking the Seilbahn from Rüdesheim, but plenty of parking exist at the top, or you can hike up amongst the vineyards

Such a peaceful place, even on a weekend. Lovely trek to the monument, through a vineyard. Other great option is the ropeway (cable car), that gives you an amazing view of the Rhein, vineyards and Rüdesheim city.

Great history Great place to visit, especially taking your family and friends to for a sightseeing. Its Never a disappointment. With such view 😍 its breath taking!

Loved our small little trip. The chairlift was extremely safe and totally worth it. The view from above was the best thing. The monument was spectacular and the history behind it was intresting. Why i am giving it 4 stars is simple we paid for the boat to get to the monument and also the chairlift still when we reached the top we had to pay for toilet. They should atleast not ask extra.

This place is worth the time and effort to visit. You can actually walk up to this place from the town of Rudesheim. The cable car is the way to go up. If you have the time, you can walk Babcock down through the vineyards with the constant beautiful scenery of the Rhine River as you walk down. The history of this place is explained in several languages when you get up to the monument.

A very impressive monument built in the late 1800’s to commentate the unification of Germany. THIS IS NOT A WAR MEMORIAL . There is ample paid parking on a very well organised and maintained site which is well lit and has a lot of seating offering fantastic views of the Rhein river and of course the memorial itself. There’s a very good restaurant here on site with a good selection and outdoor seating area too. The memorial is also accessible to and from Rüdesheim via a cable car lift.

What a beautiful place to visit, a quick ride up the mountain in the cable cars and a lovely walk around to see the monument, the views are breathtaking

We got up here by a very scenic cable car ride🚠 Cute little cable car for 2 person! The view over the Rhine river is quite amazing with fields of vineyard along the river!

Located in Rudeschein right on the Rhine River. Cable car ride to the top is amazing! As you glide up over the vineyards you can see for miles. Cost was about 10 Euros pp. Only 2 adults per car. You can also drive to the top. Monument is magnificent but you MUST read the panels to learn about the historical significance. Cafe & snack shop at the top too.

Beautiful historic monument in Rüdesheim. The view from the monument is amazing ❤️❤️❤️, from the top you can see River Rhine, wine fields and nearby towns. Convenient place for family trips and weekend outings. The nearby forest makes it possible for those who love hiking.

Must visit and if u are with a 🚗. Take the up spot of the cablecart there is match more place to park and it cost less. From the you will found a nice country roads and forest

Not only the monument is quite grand, it also has a very interesting history behind (which is briefly explained in some plaques around it). The whole area has a beautiful view of the river, making it a perfect spot for drinking a glass of wine after a hike through the vineyards.

The view is breathtaking. The monument is worthy to see. United we win. The historical perspective is one of the kind.. bucket list checked.

The place was really nice with awesome views of the city below. It looks much beautiful in the night time when the lights are on. It's a good place for a family outing.

Beautiful views !! It is worth it. Sitting there feels like holidays abroad. You can have a good rest here and it is nice for evening walks.

A very beautiful, hilarious and mighty monument...you simply must respect it, the builders and creators as well, you must love the place. The view is breathtaking, it is picturesque and just overwhelming...the river Rhein, the little town, the small hills around...everything....and if you decide to walk up to it through the wineyard you will enjoy it even more (just take enough water)

Stunning views and a wonderful day trip for the family.

Very nice viewpoint and a nice way up through the vineyards. There is a vine restaurant on the way up and if you have the time get a Glas of vine there. Perfect Sunday afternoon.

Perfekt viev and scenery also cable car is gorgeous experience.

Simply love this place..soo tranqille...

A very nice experience with a breathtaking view

Nice place to visit. The monjment is beautiful and the view is amazing. Accessible eithir with Seilbahn or with a car. If you arrive with a car, you have to pay for parking. There is a restaurant and a lot of banks to sit and enjoy the view

Beautiful monument with a commanding view of the Rhine. Dog friendly even if you take the cable car up. Lots of paths to take and a cafe at the top too.

Cool view! 2 rivers across, 3 mountain lines. 1883 monument
