Beethoven–Haydn–Mozart Memorial, Classical composers memorial in Großer Tiergarten, Germany.
Description
The Beethoven-Haydn-Mozart Memorial is a commemorative structure in Großer Tiergarten dedicated to three classical composers, built from granite, bronze, and marble. The monument features a neo-baroque pavilion design standing about 10 meters tall with each figure displayed in its own alcove.
History
The monument was commissioned by Kaiser Wilhelm II in 1904 and designed by sculptor Rudolf Siemering. It was created as a tribute to three influential masters of classical music from the previous era.
Culture
The statues are arranged in separate niches, each showing a composer in a distinct way. Mozart appears youthful in rococo dress, while Beethoven and Haydn were rendered from different sources of inspiration.
Practical
The memorial is located in an open park setting and is accessible throughout the year. Visitors should note that the structure may be occasionally closed for maintenance work or restoration projects.
Did you know?
Local residents gave the structure the nickname 'Musician Oven' because of its resemblance to decorative tiled stoves common in Berlin homes around 1900. This informal name arose naturally among people who regularly passed by the monument.
