 Antony Gormley's Iron Man by brummielaura This statue was made by famous British artist Antony Gormley (he is the one who made the Angel of the North).

 Really the sculpture is called 'The River'... by M0B1US Actually this centrepiece of a nude in a fountain in Victoria square is officially called 'The River', though the locals jokingly call it 'the floozy in the jacuzzi'... It makes a wonderful centrepiece for this pedestrianised square that was refurbished about 10 years ago... Also of note here is Anthony Gormley's (he of the Angel of the North) rusting, armless Iron Man, which is a tribute to the city's metalworking past. The square is a great place for lunch on the go and watching the world go by... Leave a Comment Address: Victoria Square

by Imbi Victoria Square used to be a grassy park where tourist and locals would picnic on a summer's afternoon but now it has transformed into a pedestrian friendly square. The statue of Queen Victoria is most noticeable object in Victoria Square. Leave a Comment

It is located at the western end of New Street. It is one of Birmingham's nicer squares so is a good starting off point from which to explore the city. In the centre of the square is a statue of Queen Victoria. Leave a Comment

It is home to both the Town Hall and the Council House. The square was named after Queen Victoria after her death in 1901 when a statue of her was erected. It was previously known as Council House Square. Leave a Comment

home to both the Town Hall and the Council House. The square was named after Queen Victoria after her death in 1901 when a statue of her was erected and unveiled on January 10. It was previously known as Council House Square It is often considered to be the centre of Birmingham, and is the point from where local road sign distances are measured. The square was redeveloped in August 1992, including the installation of a fountain sculpture by Dhruva Mistry, representing youth and eternity, called 'The River' but known affectionately as 'The Floozie in the Jacuzzi'. Directions: centre of Birmingham off corparation street
