Hermann the German, also known as Arminius, was the leader of the Cherusci tribe – a Germanic tribe from the forests and plains of northwestern Germany. He famously led the coalition of allied Germanic tribes to victory against three of Roman’s legions in the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest, in the year of 9 AD. Since 1897 the iconic 32-foot-tall copper statue has brandished its Teutonic sword over the city of New Ulm. The monument features the copper statue above a beautiful, white cupola that’s supported with 10 columns, and stands 102 feet tall. This historic landmark is a must-see when visiting New Ulm, Minnesota.
