In 1784, the ice floes were 3 to 5 m high on the road at this point and 85 workers had to work for 10 days to make them passable for traffic. A new road was built and a monument was erected for it to the then sovereign.

The Lion Monument, which was erected at the end of the 18th century, is reminiscent of the extensive rock blasts carried out between 1791 and 1794, which removed a then infamous narrow passage on the steep bank of the Danube. This road extension was a very difficult, complex and very unusual construction project for the time. After completing the road widening in 1794, the Hofkammer Vice-President His Excellency Count Josef August von Toerring decided to erect a memorial there in honor of his Elector Carl-Theodor.
