Statue of Maria Theresa in Bratislava, Bronze monument in Bratislava, Slovakia

The equestrian statue features Maria Theresa seated on her throne, holding a scepter as a symbol of authority over the Habsburg territories.

The original statue, created by sculptor Jan Fadrusz, stood in Bratislava from 1897 until its demolition in 1921 by Czechoslovak legionaries.

The monument represents Maria Theresa's coronation at Saint Martin's Cathedral in 1741, marking her strong connection with Hungarian nobility.

A new bronze reproduction of the statue will be installed near Hotel Carlton, with the hotel management taking responsibility for its maintenance.

The monument incorporates historical photographs and surviving fragments to recreate the original design through modern bronze casting techniques.
