Guided Story
Standing here, you're facing a stele erected in 1838. This memorial, dedicated by King Ludwig I of Bavaria, commemorates Lieutenant General Freiherr von Werneck. He played a crucial role in the creation of the initial lake layout in the Englischer Garten. As an architectural heritage monument in Bavaria, this stele holds significant historical value. If you look around, you'll find the Kleinhesseloher See about 246 meters to the southwest. The Seehaus, another popular spot in the garden, is just 58 meters in the same direction. This area is the result of many efforts, but Werneck's contributions are prominently remembered here.
