The Konrad Adenauer Memorial commemorates the first Chancellor of Germany and his time in the Westerwald region. It conveys historical contexts and regional references in an understandable manner.
The Nistermühle south of Hachenburg is one of the historically significant sites in the region and was first documented in 1234. In September 1944, the Roedig family offered shelter to the later Chancellor Konrad Adenauer here to protect him from the Gestapo. Under the alias “Dr. Weber,” Adenauer lived for several weeks in the secluded mill until his whereabouts were discovered. On the night of September 25, 1944, the building was surrounded and Adenauer was arrested. A memorial plaque today commemorates these events, making the Nistermühle a quiet witness to the regional contemporary history.
