The Rosette nebula is a well-known HII region in the constellation of Monoceros with a diameter of more than 2°. The nebula has a nearly circular shape forming a ring around a deep local intensity minimum (Fig. 1). The open star cluster NGC 2244 is visible within the HI1 region, containing early-type stars which emit enough hard UV radiation to ionize the nebula. Adjacent to the north-eastern border of the Rosette nebula there is the large supernova remnant of the Monoceros Loop.
