Heldenplatz in Vienna, a square with quite a lot of history...
the statue shows Archduke Charles (Erzherzog Karl) and is the older of two statues showing riders, which also give the Heldenplatz (square of heros) its name.
the Heldenplatz became famous in a negative way, as Adolf Hitler announced Austria's annexation (Anschluss) from the balcony of the new Hofburg.
the square itself is huge and around it a lot of history is on display, like the Hofburg, home to the Austrian President, the National Library, "across the street" (you can see the two cupolas) you'll find the Museum of Art and the Museum of Natural Sciences, the Parliament and the city hall.
