Niederwalddenkmal
After being built for six years, the city celebrated the opening of the monument in memory of the German-French war of 1870/71 and the founding of the German State on 28 September 1883 with Emperor Wilhelm I. The Germania is approx. 12.5 m high and offers a view of Rheingau, Bingen, Rhein, Nahetal and Ruedesheim.
Note:
Please note Java or QuickTime is being required in order to show the 360°-Panorama-Views. Usually Java is already part of the operating system of a modern PC. We recommend you to use QuickTime which is supplied as part of modern PCs too as it is cost-free and reaches the highest multi-medial efficiency.
The recommended screen resolution should be 1024x768. The transmission of data can be accelerated by using a hyper internet connection with DSL or dual-ISDN (clustered channels).
Additional information for the use of QuickTime or Java.
The interactive 360°-Panorama-Views are captures of moments taken from a permanent position. As a user you might take free views moving to all directions around this position. You only need to move the pointer of your mouse to the requested position within the 360°-Panorama-View while keeping the left button pressed.
Most of the 360°-Panorama-Views are featuring a kind of surround sound to give you the impression of being "right there in place".
So, just turn on your sound system a little bit louder and enjoy impressive experiences while viewing.
