The Völkerschlachtdenkmal in Leipzig. The largest man-made monument in the world, dedicated to the people who beat Napoleon. Incidentally, 200 years ago this year.
 
Not meaning to be a smartarse, but how do you define "The largest man-made monument in the world" ?
Is it "The largest man-made monument in the world for the people that defeated Napoleon" or "The largest man-made monument in the world"?.

Very impressive, by the way.

I do apologise. It WAS the largest in the world when it was built. I think it's been overtaken by something else.
And to answer your question; if you notice the comma, then you'll see that it's not referring to the largest dedicated to those who defeated Napoleon, but the structure itself. Although, it actually is the largest dedicated to those who beat Napoleon!

It's now Hartshead Pike for me - A bit different from Prague

5 minutes from me. Looks resplendent in the morning sun. Never walked up to it yet!

Was up there a couple of months ago...
