    Probably the world's most famous depiction of a "Pieta" - with Our Lady holding her dead son on her lap - is in St. Peter's Basilica in Rome and was created by the young Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475-1564).

    The Pieta, initially completely white and decorated with gold lines, was created in 1903 and formerly stood on the church square. On the occasion of the erection of the war memorial in 1923, the Pieta was relocated to the current location of the former hospital church. Today it is painted in polychrome.
