This virtual Munzee shows you the equestrian statue of archduke Karl.
Built in 1860 this feat of the sculptor Anton Dominik Ritter von Fernkorn (based on a painting by Johann Peter Krafft) shows something very remarkable:
The full weight of the bronze statue rests only on the two rear hooves! The weight of the statue is exactly balanced to build this special equestrian statue!
You will hardly find any similar sculpture in the world (from those days)!
