French monument near Dürnstein. The monument to Franzos commemorates the victory of the Austro-Russian troops against the Napoleonic troops.

May 22, 2020 - Large memorial directly above the Wachau Railway. You can climb briefly or get on the path from above. Was built to celebrate the Austro-Russian victory over Napoleon's troops at the Battle of Dürnstein in November 1805.

A memorial was designed on the battlefield based on a design by the construction councilor Friedrich Schachner from Vienna. It was built on the extreme ledge of the Higher Corner, the last position of General Gazan. In the substructure there is a chapel and an ossuary. In the upper part, which has the shape of a cartridge, Mortier, Kutusow, Schmitt and the hunter Bayer are shown in relief. Inscriptions in German, French and Russian remind of the struggles. It opened on June 27, 1905.
