Statue of Saint George at Prague Castle, Bronze equestrian statue at Prague Castle, Czech Republic

The statue depicts Saint George on horseback engaged in combat with a dragon, standing in the third courtyard of Prague Castle.

Created in 1373 by Transylvanian Saxon sculptors Martin and Georg of Cluj, the statue represents a pinnacle of medieval bronze casting techniques.

The statue manifests the medieval European tradition of portraying Saint George as a defender against evil through religious symbolism and artistic execution.

The statue stands in a wheelchair-accessible area of Prague Castle, allowing visitors to examine the bronze work from multiple angles throughout the day.

This medieval bronze casting remains the oldest surviving statue at Prague Castle, displaying early traces of Renaissance artistic influence.
