Noch eine starke #Frau für den #FotoVorschlag (Frau/Weltfrauentag): #KatharinaDieGroße oder Katharina II. Diese #Statue steht in #Zerbst, woher die Fürstenfamilie ihres Vaters stammte. Als junge #Prinzessin lebte sie über ein Jahr dort, bevor sie den russischen Thronfolger heiratete und später allein über 30 Jahre als #Kaiserin über das Russische Reich regierte. --> #StatuenSamstag // Another strong #woman for today's photo prompt (Woman/International Women's Day): #CatherineTheGreat or Catherine II. This #statue can be found in the town of Zerbst, where her father's family ruled over a small principality. She lived in Zerbst for a little over a year as a young #princess, before she married the future Russian tsar and later became #Empress of Russia, ruling the country for more than 30 years. --> #StatueSaturday


Apologies for the long caption, I love history
A full shot of a bronze statue depicting a young Catherine the Great standing on a round plinth in a park setting. She wears a long, detailed dress and a small crown, with her right arm extended. To her right, on a smaller stand, is a crown and a key. The plinth is decorated with a wreath and has the inscription 'Sophie Auguste Friederike', her birth name. The statue is surrounded by a circular cobblestone path, with green lawn and bare trees visible in the background.
