Monument Brunswick

  Monument Brunswick sits prominently at the intersection of Rue de l'Université and Rue de Mont-Blanc in Geneva. Constructed in 1879 as a tribute to Duke Charles II of Brunswick, this ornate structure features stunning neo-Gothic elements and intricate carvings. Primarily serving as a memorial, it commemorates the Duke's bequest to the city, which aimed to foster education and culture. Visitors can enjoy the monument year-round, though it draws particular interest during the annual Fête de l'Escalade in December, when the surrounding streets come alive with festivities. While there, take a moment to marvel at the intricate details of the monument or relax in the nearby park, where you can observe local flora and fauna.
