Alfred Hrdlicka’s Golgotha, 1963 

[trs-tash]

Monument against war and fascism Alfred Hrdlicka (1928-2009) This was once the site of Phillip-Hof, an imposing apartment block built during the prosperous final quarter 19th Century. It was destroyed in an air-raid on March 12th 1945. Hundreds died who had sought refuge in its cellar. The exact number of dead has never been verified as bodies could not be recovered from the rubble. For this reason, it was deemed during the commemorative year of 1988, to be an appropriate site for City of #vienna to place a Monument against war and fascism. The Austrian Sculptor Alfred Hrdlicka was given the commission for its concept and execution.
