Mozart Statues Vanish in Salzburg | San Antonio News

Salzburg’s Mozart statue heist: Over 200 tiny gold figurines, each capturing the composer with his dog, vanished from public displays—artist Ottmar Hörl calls it an “organized theft.” Created to humanize Mozart’s legacy, these statues were scattered across gardens and pavilions, but now they’re gone, leaving the Mozarteum Foundation scrambling.
