The ramp is now just the remains of the old, once-mighty Augustinian priory, on the site of some former city fortifications in Vienna.
The bastion was destroyed in 1858, and the ramp that remained was severely damaged by bombing in 1945. It was converted into open-air steps in 1952.
The ramp is dominated by an equestrian statue (1899) by Kaspar von Zumbusch of the Field- Marshal Archduke Albrecht (1817-95), the victor of the battle of Custozza (1866).
