The Saint George and the Dragon sculpture is located in Köpmantorget (Merchants' Street) in Gamla stan, Stockholm, Sweden. Unveiled on 10 October 1912, marking the anniversary of the Battle of Brunkeberg, it is a bronze replica of Bernt Notke's wooden Saint George and the Dragon, which is in Stockholm's Storkyrkan. It is dedicated to Saint George, in particular the legend of Saint George and the Dragon.
Interesting to see how there is a depiction of a dragon statue even though dragons are just fairytales, myths and legends. Apparently cultures from east west have a lot of depictions of dragons in different forms.
