Johann Benk made the bronze figures. Under an ensign bearing the standard of the regiment are gathered “Vindobono” and “Landshut grenadier” and the “true comrade”. Two reliefs recall the regiment’s baptism of fire at Zenta in 1696 and the battle of Kolin of 1757.

On November 1st 1918 Egon Erwin Kisch formed the “Red Guard” in front of this memorial.
