Monument of Adalbert Lanna the Elder

Czech Republic

The Monument of Adalbert Lanna the Elder is a sculpture of Adalbert Lanna the Elder in České Budějovice in the Czech Republic. It is located in the Sady city park near the western end of Lannova třída Street. It was created between 1866 and 1879 in the Imperial-Royal Artistic Foundry in Vienna under the artistic direction of Franz Pönninger. It was paid for largely from a long-term public money collection, which was initiated by the city council of České Budějovice to honor the deceased Adalbert Lanna the Elder, who was a local native. In May 1945, it was torn down by a crowd, severely damaged and removed to a secluded place. Its partial restoration and re-erection took place in 1993.
