Hiking
Personally, I don't find the designation "Kriegsdenkmal" (war memorial) for the highlight created here to be accurate, as it doesn't reflect the current intention of such a memorial. After all, it's not meant to commemorate "war" itself, but the victims of war and tyranny. The name "Ehrenmal" (memorial of honor) – or more recently sometimes "Gefallenen-Denkmal" (memorial for the fallen, which conceptually comes close to the commonly used French "Monument aux morts") – expresses the commemorative character much better from my perspective than the corresponding and commonly used English term "War memorial".
