Otto von Bismarck seems to enjoy the dreamlike view over the nature park, with his mighty sword set up in front of him like a walking stick. Originally, however, the monumental statue stood in a completely different location, namely on Knivsberg near Apenrade. In 1920, when this area was awarded to Denmark after the First World War, the statue was dismantled and transported by train to Rendsburg. After many disputes and years of storage in a barn in Ascheffel, the cultural monument was inaugurated at its current location in September 1930. Otto von Bismarck (1815–1898) was the founder and chancellor of the German Empire.
