It's a contemporary sculpture of Pegasus, the winged horse from Greek mythology.
Symbolizing:
A. freedom
B. imagination
C. creativity
D. progress
Perfectly fitting for a city that always teeters between history and innovation.
Why is it located there?
The location is no coincidence:
– on the Loire
– near Pont Wilson
– in the line between the Château de Tours and the city center
Pegasus looks toward the city.
Interpretation (unofficial, but strong):
➡️ Tours as a city that continues to move, think, and create.
