STATUES AND SCULPTURES

Statues and sculptures are an integral part to the architecture of any town. In most cases, locals do not notice these historical objects and consider them an every-day element of their town. However, many of these monuments (such as plague columns) have other than just beautifying significance. Getting to know their author, their origins, and the message that the monument carries is worth it.
