Passau, Germany: Wittelsbach Fountain

St. Mary receives a tribute in the middle of Old Town in Passau. It's the centerpiece of a relatively small square.

At least Mary - the patron saint of Bavaria - has company here. There are three angels attached to the monument, and they represent the three rivers of the city. Therefore it's something of a political statement, but also a tribute to the city itself. 

Jacob Bradl, take a bow for this impressive work.

Just be advised that the area is covered with cobblestones, so watch your step.
