When the monument was originally constructed, Hungary was a part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and thus the last five spaces for statues on the left of the colonnade were reserved for members of the ruling Habsburg dynasty.
Ajal, mil monument ehitati, oli Ungari osa Austria-Ungari riigist, ja seetõttu reserveeriti sammastiku vasemal osal asuvad viis viimast kohta valitseva Habsburgide dünastia liikmetele.
