The most spectacular find was made as early as 1502: a perfect statue of a young man. The beautiful “”Jüngling vom Helenenberg””, so named after the mountain’s name at that time which was Helenenberg, was a European sensation and as the finest example of Greek sculpturing in the monarchy has found its way into the Vienna Museum of Art. For tourism’s sake the young man was renamed “”Jüngling vom Magdalensberg”” and copies of the statue can now be seen both in the Magdalensberg museum and in Klagenfurt. The “”original”” was then identified as a Roman copy of a Greek original of the 5th century BC; recently, however, it turned out to be an early Renaissance copy of an original Roman copy of the Greek original both of which had gone lost, yet their beauty has been preserved.
