    The southernmost Bismarck monument in the country is on Heldenweg in Lindau and looks down onto the lake.
    There is a mighty eagle in the base of which a Bismarck image was embedded in half relief under his name on the lake side. The stylized and 8 meter high eagle looks to the west, it was carved by Lothar Dietz (1896-1976).
    From here you have a wonderful view of Lindau and across to Bregenz.

    There is a dispute in Lindau about the future of the Bismarck monument and a demolition is being discussed.

    I find the ostentatious and unoriginal Bismarck towers (the ones with the three-quarter columns at the corners) rather unnecessary, especially when they don't even serve as observation towers.

    Excellent view and a dubious eagle
