Gileppe Dam

Highlight • Monument

The tallest lion in the world (*if the Sphynx doesn't count):
The stone lion is the landmark of the Gilepppe dam. With a length of 13.5 m, the massive 180-ton collos looks in the direction of Eupen. In the year of the inauguration by King Leopold II (July 28, 1878), the Prussian border at that time was about 5 km away. The lion represents the strength of the nation of Belgium.
