Statue of Queen Elizabeth

Elizabeth park, Táncsics Mihály road

The bronze statue shows Elisabeth with flowers and a parasol in her hands - a picture that the citizens of Gödöllő could see so many times as history has it that Sisi loved walking and took long strolls in the parks and woods of her empire.The first full body statue of Queen Elizabeth was made by József Róna, a major sculptor of the time. The pedestal is decorated by garlands. The statue itself is much larger in its size than Elizabeth used to be: the imposing 2.5m statue shows Elizabeth in an erect pose. The elaborate finishes on the statue show Elizabeth's delicate features and beauty well. The statue is a good image of Elizabeth's complex character and conveys the warm feelings that she cherished with the Hungarians.
