The Spohr Monument on Opera Square
Where the C&A department stores' is today, the imposing Palais Waitz von Eschen once stood, which was destroyed in the Second World War. The Spohr Monument, erected in 1883, survived the bombing. It is dedicated to the Kassel composer, conductor and music teacher Louis Spohr (1784-1859). He is considered one of the most important German composers of the 19th century and was also internationally successful as a celebrated violin virtuoso. The music academy of the city of Kassel is named after him.
