Headless in Bamberg

Bamberg is a gorgeous medieval city which, being built on seven hills overlooking a river, has often been compared to Rome.

Of all the city’s wonders, however, I didn’t expect to find a headless statue in the cathedral. Perhaps it’s St. Denis, (although he was a French martyr who picked up his decapitated caput and walked to what is now Montmartre, Paris before collapsing).

Still, he doesn’t look too dissatisfied with his lot.
