Trafalgar Square

 

 

 

 



Orginally a tribute to Lord Nelson and victory at Waterloo. The base of Nelson's monument is surrounded by four lions all made of melted down french weapons captured at Waterloo. A patriotic Frenchmen attempted to paint "Napoleon Forever" on the monument but wa stopped before he could finish, disbonded by his failure he then tried unsuccessfully to drown himself in the 6 inchs of water in the fountain on the square.
