    The “Mooning Gargoyle” (or Freiburger Münster-Arsch) is a famous architectural feature of the Freiburg Minster (Freiburger Munster) in southwest Germany, known for its irreverent posture and the legendary act of rebellion it represents.

    Unlike traditional gargoyles that channel water through their mouths, this 13th or early 14th-century figure is carved in a “full tuck” or mooning pose, with its backside prominently exposed.

    We use to live in a society that celebrated gargoyles. Bring back gargoyles.

    Well I’d call it grotesque, but it’s clearly moving water.
