Super
We just pass by when we follow the cycle path along the wild Eagle.
Previously, the fragment was exposed closer to the city with the indicated length of the gun, the more understandable concept of art work, unfortunately, under the pressure of weirs, this scrap was transferred to a less suitable place to "not defeat" public space, shame
Nothing extra piece of pipe by the road ... 😀
It is really worth noting. One of the most original sculptures in public space in the Czech Republic. It is a work of the artist Jiří Příhoda. However, it is a replica of a real cannon, designed by English designer Gerald Vincent Bull for the Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein. It has never been completed. It was 156 meters tall and consisted of twenty-six pieces of six meters each. This is a defakto replica of one part of this cannon. Eventually, it was not delivered to Iraq in full and the rest delivered was destroyed in the US military operation "Desert Storm". The question is why the fragment of the cannon is located just outside Brandys nad Orlici, but it is certainly a remarkable act.
During spring, autumn and winter, this artifact of war can be easily seen from the main train route Prague - Česká Třebová. If the shrubs are bigger and bigger, less.
