Figura św. Jana Nepomucena to jedna z charakterystycznych rzeźb sakralnych w Poznaniu. Postać świętego, znanego jako patron mostów i ochrony przed powodziami, często umieszczana jest przy ważnych punktach miasta, by chronić mieszkańców. Figura jest wykonana z kamienia lub piaskowca, przedstawia świętego w tradycyjnym stroju duchownym, trzymającego krzyż lub palmę męczeństwa. Jej miejsce w przestrzeni miejskiej nadaje otoczeniu duchowy wymiar i przypomina o religijnych tradycjach miasta. To mały, ale ważny symbol wiary i historii, który warto zobaczyć podczas spaceru po Poznaniu.

Dobrze wygląda ☺️

Piękna barokowa figura, wybudowana w 1724 roku wg projektu nieznanego architekta. Patronat św. Jana Nepomucena miał chronić przed powodziami, które w tamtych czasach potrafiły zalać ogromną powierzchnię miasta, jako że Warta była rozgałęziona, a jej wylewy były nieprzewidywalne
