The first monument to ââ¬ÅEmpressââ¬Â Maria Theresa to be erected in Austria was placed in Klagenfurt at the west end of Neuer Platz square in 1765 in place of the equestrian statue of Leopold I. The original hard lead statue of artistic value was replaced by a bronze sculpture in 1873 and the monument was relocated to the east end of the square in 1972 (after building the underground car park). |
