This is another view of the Main Market. Let's concentrate on the statue to the left in the photo.
The guy standing on top of the fountain is Peter, the patron saint of the city. As usual, there are plenty of extra ornaments on the structure. They includes coats of arms, representations of a few animals, and some decorations. It used to be a working fountain, but now it's just there for decoration.
By the way, a bouquet of flowers is pinned to Peter at the start of the Old Town Festival. That's supposed to guarantee good weather during the holidays; there's no word on how well that works.
