In the center of Mozartplatz is the Mozart monument by Ludwig Schwanthaler. In 1841, the statue was to be commemorated. Anniversary of W. A.'s death Mozart can be set up. However, the unveiling of the monument was delayed by a year because a Roman mosaic was found in the ground, which was recovered in a time-consuming manner. On September 4, 1842, the statue was formally unveiled in the presence of Mozart's sons.
The Bavarian King Ludwig I was an important patron of the Mozart statue and donated the marble base. A copy of the Roman mosaic can still be found at the foot of the statue.

This monument stands in tribute to Wolfgang Mozart, one of Austria and Salzburg's most famous sons. The depiction of Mozart seems to have come straight out of the sculptor's imagination, it just doesn't look like the portraits of the great composer.

For Mozart enthusiasts, it must be really wonderful to come to Salzburg and see and feel all of this, but with only a basic awareness of Mozart, it wasn't a thrill to see the statue, but I enjoyed seeing the enjoyment of others.

I'm a big Mozart fan but not a big statue fan (think Fidel Castro). This was great to see in the Old Town of Salzburg but nothing that would have me do than walk around it and snap a pic. It's a good place to have as a meeting point though as it can be seen from most places.

Easy to find by Salzburg cathedral in a big square. Had nice flowers played at the base. Has nearby benches for you rest on your walk around the Old Town.

As a Mozart fan, it feels surreal to see the monument in Salzburg. It's worth to see and knowing how important his music not only in Salzburg but around the world!

It is said that Mozart was a musical genius, and I believe that. To stand in front of his statue, I could only hope that I would be inspired to do something great someday.

It's Mozart, in Salzburg, so it's an obligatory picture to take. It's also a good meeting point and near the next bus station.

We visited Salzburg after having been away for many years. Mozart Monument is a great monument but unfortunately there was construction going on and it was hard to get around.
