Deutschmeister-Denkmal, Military memorial in Innere Stadt, Austria.

The Deutschmeister-Denkmal is a bronze monument in Vienna's city center featuring a flag bearer standing on a decorated pylon. The structure includes relief carvings depicting military scenes and inscriptions that tell the story of the regiment it honors.

The regiment was founded in 1695 in Donauwörth during the Turkish wars and fought at Zenta in 1697 and Kolin in 1757. Its 200th anniversary in 1895 prompted Vienna's council to approve a memorial, contributing 20,000 kronen; the foundation stone was laid on 7 September 1896. Johannes Benk's design won in 1903, and the monument was unveiled on 29 September 1906.

The regiment took its name from the office of the Hoch- und Deutschmeister of the Teutonic Order, its proprietor, rather than from a person. The front relief facing the Ringstraße shows the baptism of fire at Zenta in 1697; the rear relief depicts Graf Soro at Kolin in 1757. The monument was unveiled on 29 September 1906.

The monument is located at the intersection of Universitätsring and Maria-Theresien-Straße in the old city center. It is easily reached on foot and sits near other historic sites and public transport options.

The flag bearer was modeled after actual soldiers from the regiment rather than as an idealized figure. This gave the monument a personal quality that set it apart from other military memorials in the city.
