The monument of the Angel of Peace was designed by a man named Jacob Mohl and was created in 1896. The monument was not shown until three years later. It was made north of the riverbank of Isar. The structure is about 25 meters which is equivalent to 82 feet.The figure used was the Goddess Nike who is the goddess of victory. The statue was created in order to celebrate 25 years of Peace after the Franco-Prussian War which resulted in a victory for the German Troops. Not many famous people have been located at this site but it is known for its famous artwork of the fights that had happened in Germany.
