The Düppel Monument was a 22-metre-high Prussian sandstone monument erected in 1872 on the foundation of Schanze 2 of the Düppeler Schanzen and, together with the Arnkiel Monument, commemorated the Prussian troops and their victory in the German-Danish War.
In 1864, after the German-Danish War, Kaiser Wilhelm I suggested that monuments be erected on the battlefield, as well as in Berlin. The court architect Heinrich Strack was commissioned to carry out all projects. In 1867, funds amounting to 330,000 thalers were approved for this purpose. After about two years of construction, the Düppel Monument and the Arnkiel Monument cost 38652 and 33300 thalers, respectively. For the Victory Column in Berlin, only 258,000 thalers remained.
