Syrius Eberle

Ludwig II, King of Bavaria, gave him several commissions for decorations for his newly built castles, and also for single figures, groups, panels, and almost all his carriages and sledges.

He also created the former war memorial in Kempten, which in his time stood on the site of the present bus station.

[3] During the years 1890-1892 he made the four pylons for the Ludwigsbrücke [de] ("Ludwig Bridge") in Munich, as well as the 1890 monument in the Ottostrasse to Franz Xaver Gabelsberger, the inventor of stenography.

As a professor at the Munich Kunstakademie he was a member in 1893 of the commission formed to evaluate the suggestions for the new building of the Bayerisches Nationalmuseum (built 1894/95).

[5] In August 1897, he won the competition for the equestrian statue of Kaiser Wilhelm I in Nuremberg, but retired to Bozen in the South Tyrol, where he died in 1903, before its completion.
