Phallic Obelisk
It all started as an "April Fool" joke by a local TV station, saying that the Fertility monument is being removed prior to the Pope's visit.

But it is not an April fools joke: the monument is removed for the visit, isn't it?
(and as the Pope isn't in the Vatican at the time, seems like a good place to put it...
)
I think it is hypocritical: to remove it... Furthermore, who is to say the pope hasn't planned his visit just to see it?
@ALBPM: See what I mean?

No, definitly not ! It has been stated by the government that there is no intention of it being removed.
Yes it started as an April fool joke and the mayor of that village belived it was true.
Read the bottom line of the first story in the link I posted. The BBC and all the others got fooled !
BTW, the picture has been edited by me. lolLast edited by Debbie; 14 April 2010, 22:42.We pass this way only once. Make the most of it !Comment

Oh... I should really learn to read articles to the end...
But I can imagine some people finding it offensive, so it does have a good ground to start a joke on..

Offensive ? lol. It stopped being an attraction because all the locals got used to it. It had been long forgotten untill recently.We pass this way only once. Make the most of it !Comment

Yeah, but some people are easily offended...
Still, if that was't a succesful April fools joke, I don't know what is.
