カノッサの屈辱
The viewpoint on the northern edge of the castle plateau is marked by the high Canossa Column, erected in 1877 during the German "Kulturkampf" conflict in honour of Chancellor Otto von Bismarck on the 800th anniversary of King Henry's Walk to Canossa. In addition, the former castle grounds comprise the more than two-hundred-year-old Bismarck Elm, a Harz folktales memorial hall erected from 1928 to 1932, a modern statue of the alleged pagan god Krodo, as well as a restaurant.
