Třeboň

We took the Dutch Cow to Třeboň in Czech Republic, a much Blipped town but I have never really looked at this fountain in the castle grounds. In the extra you can see a bird picking the brains out of several heads spitting into the fountain. I forgot to see if there was a title or explanation so asked Google. The information in English was rather sketchy and sometimes inaccurate or contradictory. The German entries were a little better. So….. the Baroque fountain was built in 1712 by famous Czech architect Pavel Ignác Bayer, has the Schwarzenberg crest (the castle owners of the time) and depicts a raven and 4 Turkish heads to commemorate a military victory. This has taken ages to collect so I will just say we had lunch, walked then went home
