John of Austria or Don Giovanni d'Austria is a monumental sculpture in bronze, originally gilded, of John of Austria by architect and sculptor Andrea Calamech, a native of Carrara who trained in the Florentine workshop of Bartolomeo Ammannati.

[1] Its erection was decided by the Senate of Messina in 1571 to honor the victor of the Battle of Lepanto, from which many Messineses had benefited, and it was dedicated in 1572.

John is figured holding a three-pronged baton in reference to his command of the triple alliance of Philip II, the Pope, and the Republic of Venice, with his foot on the severed head of a vanquished Turk generally considered to be Müezzinzade Ali Pasha.

After being damaged in the Sicilian revolution of 1848, it was moved in 1853 to face the Church of Santissima Annunziata dei Teatini (it).

[4] A copy of the statue was erected on Zieroldsplatz in Regensburg, John's birthplace, in 1978 on the fourth centenary of his death.
