The Napoleon Stone commemorates the Erfurt Congress of Princes of 1808, with the meetings between Napoleon and Tsar Alexander I, which took place on this site. It was ceremoniously opened to the public in May 1911. With its design, it remains a very beautiful place to linger.

The cycle ring is interesting with its agricultural information boards, although the route is not quite as exciting. Further information: erfurt-tourismus.de/gehens-wissenswertes/freizeit-und-ausflugstipps/radwandern/radring-erfurt

Along the Radring cycle path is not only this monument, but also one of the typical Radring agricultural plaques with the title “Honey Bees”. The background is also the fruit trees that follow, which bear neat and tasty fruit at the right time of year...
