The statue of Medea with Golden Fleece is located on the European square in Batumi. The statue is made of bronze and the fleece is gold covered. The statue is higher than some other buildings in Batumi and it is even seen far from the city center.

What it symbolizes

The statue of Medea was finished on the 6th of July 2007. It was created by David Khmaladze. On the outstretched arm, it holds Golden Fleece, a symbol of greatness and prosperity that it gives to European countries for the sake of making their relationships better. It looks on the sea because 3 000 years ago Yason`s and other Argonauts` ship came here.

The myths about Medea

Medeaa was a czarevna of Colchis and Argonaut Yason`s companion. They met for the first time when Yason came to Colchis searching for the Golden Fleece. Medea who fell deeply in love with Yason helped him to overcome all challenges, steal the treasure and run away with him and other Argonauts on the ship to Greece. But this is just ancient Greek mythology.
