Impressive indeed, especially for back then.
All the metal would have been salvaged long ago and thus it will never be found.

I found this!  Shocked

Giant 16th-Century 'Colossus' Sculpture In Florence, Italy Has Entire Rooms Hidden Inside

This epic colossus, half man, half mountain, was erected in the late 1500s by renowned Italian sculptor Giambologna as a symbol of Italy's rugged Appenine mountains. This mountain god, Appennino, stands 35 feet tall over the ground of the Villa di Pratolino in Tuscany.

The rugged, mountainous statue hides a beautiful secret - his interior hides several rooms with different functions that made this colossus come to life. The monster in his left-hand holds spewed water from an underground stream, rumoring that the space in his head was made for a fireplace that would blow smoke out of his nostrils when lit.
