    Prague Archbishop Cardinal Dominik Duka blesses the revived Virgin Mary column, a replica of the original 17th-century baroque artifact that was demolished by a mob in 1918, in Prague, Czech Republic, August 15, 2020. The Marian column returned to Old Town Square in Prague centre after 102 years. The Virgin Mary Column was erected in Old Town Square in 1650 and consecrated two years later as a symbol of the Catholic Church's victory in the Czech Lands. The column was pulled down by an angry mob in November 1918 after the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian (Habsburg) Monarchy and the establishment of independent Czechoslovakia.
