The column impresses with its durability. Of course, it was restored many times, even rebuilt in the end, the namesake statue left the pedestal. But this did not diminish the coolness, I like coming to chamberlitash, to stand for a while and think about human deeds and about the future fate. And the column is also a good location for meeting waifs.
An iconic place. The column of Constantine. Initially, it was crowned by a statue of Emperor Constantine, the founder of Constantinople. According to legend, the axe head of Noah's axe, the chair of David, and part of the bread of Jesus are embedded in its base. And the nail of the cross of Jesus was driven into the column. The column was damaged many times and eventually was "girded" with steel rings to increase strength.
Konstantin laid the foundation for many artifacts, Moses' chair, according to our underpants. Part of the basket from which Jesus distributed 5,000 loaves... part of Noah's axe... The city was later named Constantinople. Inseparable improvements)) ... only then did Anglicanism and Protestantism come up...and everyone began to need tourists and artifacts.
