The bronze sculpture of "Enchanting Julia", the tragic lover, was a gift from the partner city of Verona in 1974. It stands at the passage from the Old Town Hall to the valley or Viktualienmarkt. Like her counterpart in Verona, Julia from Munich is now also posing with a polished breast - but isn't the touching time out of date? A virtual art installation has been a reminder of this since July 2023: there is a QR code below the figure: if you scan it, a combative Julia is duplicated on the display, in the spirit of #MeToo. Should you think about it.
