Waterloo-Denkmal

Description

Das Waterloo-Denkmal auf dem Luisenplatz in Wiesbaden erinnert an die in der Schlacht von Waterloo 1815 gefallenen Soldaten der Herzoglich Nassauischen Armee.

Seit 1806 hatte das Herzogtum Nassau als Teil des Rheinbundes an der Seite Napoleons gestanden. Erst nach der Völkerschlacht bei Leipzig 1813 wechselte Nassau die Seiten und kämpfte fortan in den Befreiungskriegen in der Allianz gegen Frankreich. In der Schlacht bei Waterloo 1815 kämpften die herzoglichen Truppen in der englisch-niederländischen Armee. In dieser Schlacht verloren 887 nassauische Soldaten ihr Leben. Für die Überlebenden wurde die Waterloo-Medaille gestiftet.
