Among the souvenirs that tourists bring back from a visit to Prague are little clay figures of the Golem – a giant linked to one of Prague’s best known legends. What few of them know is that there is a fierce battle underway for ownership rights, which has sent a much larger version of the clay monster into hiding.
The much larger version is a large statue that cannot now be displayed or copied because of the ownership dispute. For a photo, click on the link above. For Golem background, go here and follow the links back.
