Equestrian statue of Michael the Brave
Parcul Prefecturii, Calea Unirii, Craiova, Romania
The idea of a statue in Craiova of the great voivod dates back to the beginning of the 20th century. Unfortunately, the Craiovians had to wait many years to see the current statue, after spending many years in the courtyard of the Museum of Art, for various reasons. The statue was brought to Craiova in 1974, but was dismantled until 1990 when it was erected in the city centre.
