The monument to Maria Theresa rises almost 20 meters. The Empress greets her people from a bird's eye view. She is dressed in a lush dress, holding a scroll and a scepter. Just below the Empress are four figures who embody her virtues: strength, wisdom, justice and compassion.
The Empress is surrounded on four sides by prominent generals of the time: Count Ludwig Khevenhuller, Count Leopold Down, Ernst Laudon and Count Otto Ferdinand. Their horses are beating their hooves and seemingly waiting for new orders that will guide them to feats in the glory of the fatherland.
In front of the high pedestal on which sits Maria Theresa, stand advisers and statesmen of the time. In front is the diplomat and Chancellor of State Count Anton Kaunitz. On the right is Count Friedrich Haugwitz, a reformer of public administration, on the left is the state councilor of the Life Arts Sviten, and behind him is Prince Joseph of Liechtenstein.
