St. Anne's Column stands in the city centre of Innsbruck on Maria-Theresien-Straße.It was given its name when, in 1703, the last Bavarian troops were driven from the Tyrol on St. Anne's Day, as part of the War of the Spanish Succession. In 1704, in gratitude, the Landstände vowed to build a monument commemorating the event.

The column was made by Trient sculptor, Cristoforo Benedetti, from red Kramsach marble. On the base are four statues of saints:

in the north, Saint Anne, the mother of the Blessed Virgin Mary
