The exact date and sculptor responsible for this statue are not known, although it is believed that it was created by Matthias Braun around 1730. The sculpture was erected on the bridge in 1784 to replace the statue of St. Wenceslas damaged in the floods in that year. The statue depicts St. Ludmilla teaching her grand-child, St. Wenceslas and the base contains a relief sculpture showing the murder of St. Wenceslas.
