Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Karlovy Vary (Czech Republic)
The monumental statue dedicated to German composer Ludwig van Beethoven was installed in 1929 on the site of the former monument of Emperor Franz Joseph I in the park in front of Parkhotel Richmond in the southern part of the city. The monument is the most significant work of Karlovy Vary sculptor Hugo Uher. It was erected in memory of two spa stays of the musical genius in 1812 and Beethoven's charitable concert, which he performed on 6 August 1812 at the Czech Hall for the inhabitants of the spa town of Baden near Vienna devastated by a fire. The unveiling ceremony took place on 29 September 1929. The monumental memorial is a half-round granite monument with the bronze, above-life size statue of Ludwig van Beethoven. Experts consider the monument one of the world's most beautiful memorials to Beethoven. At the occasion of the 200th anniversary of the famous composer's visit to Karlovy Vary in 2012, allegorical relief panels, which had been removed in 1946, were re-installed on the monument. |
