Werndl-Denkmal, Bronze monument in Steyr, Austria
The Werndl Monument features life-size bronze figures of industrialist Josef Werndl alongside workers including a blacksmith, mechanic, sword maker, and carpenter.
The monument, unveiled in 1894, commemorates Josef Werndl, who established the Austrian Arms Manufacturing Company and transformed Steyr into an industrial center.
The inscription 'ARBEIT EHRT' on the gray Mauthausen granite pedestal reflects the values of industrial work and craftsmanship in Upper Austrian society.
Located on the Enrica-von-Handel-Mazzetti Promenade, the monument provides an educational stop for visitors exploring Steyr's manufacturing heritage through guided tours.
During World War II, authorities removed the monument from its location, but in 1945 they reinstalled it at its original site along the promenade.
