The Golden Lion memorial site commemorates the founding congress of the Social Democratic Workers' Party (SDAP) in 1869 in Eisenach.
Since the SDAP, through further historical development up to 1890, gave rise to the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD), which still exists today, the Golden Lion is considered one of the significant sites in the early phase of the history of German social democracy.
The memorial site is located in the former inn "Zum Goldenen Löwen" at Marienstraße 57 in Eisenach, in the southern part of the old town. (…from Wiki)
