St Peters Church - Riga Rooster - Riga Latvia



The Riga Rooster sits high above the rooftops of Riga Latvia and he ... Sees all, Knows everything, Tells little; but shares what's important.

Legend tells that the Riga Rooster which adorns the top of the oldest church spires in the city serves as a wind indicator and to guide visitors into the city. According to Christian tradition, the rooster is also a vigilant defender against evil, and with his morning song he can drive away all bad things.
