Summary from Deutsch / German Wikipedia (dewiki)

Die Imperia ist eine Statue im Hafen von Konstanz am Bodensee, entworfen und ausgeführt von Peter Lenk. Die am 24. April 1993 aufgestellte Figur ist aus Beton gegossen, neun Meter hoch, 18 Tonnen schwer und dreht sich tagsüber mit Hilfe eines Drehtisches innerhalb von vier Minuten einmal um die eigene Achse. Im Sockelbauwerk ist eine ältere Pegelmessstation integriert, die von einem begehbaren Steg umgeben ist. Die satirische Darstellung des Konzils von Konstanz geht auf eine frivole Erzählung von Honoré de Balzac aus dessen Tolldreisten Geschichten zurück.

Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

Imperia is a statue at the entrance of the harbour of Konstanz, Germany, commemorating the Council of Constance that took place there between 1414 and 1418. The concrete statue is 9 metres (30 ft) high, weighs 18 tonnes (18 long tons; 20 short tons), and stands on a pedestal that rotates around its axis once every four minutes. It was created by Peter Lenk and clandestinely erected in 1993. The erection of the statue caused controversy, but it was on the private property of a rail company that did not object to its presence. Eventually, it became a widely-known landmark of Konstanz.
