Dalek Invasion of Austria

Large steel chess king sculpture

On the way home from Austria, I encountered a Dalek. Well, not really, but I got an enormous fright all the same. Standing guard outside the departure gates is an enormous iron chess king, some 20 feet tall. I'm fairly sure it wasn't there last time.

A plaque at the base reads:

Gerhard Moswitzer
HÄUPTLING KÖNIG, 1996
Corten - Stahl
