The Rite of the Crane is one of many beautiful sculptures you can find throughout Downtown Fresno. Dedicated by German-American sculptor Bruno Groth in 1964, this piece is one of several bird-related works he created. πͺΆ
The sculpture is especially relevant to Fresno, as cranes continue to find refuge in the Central Valleyβs marshlands to this day. Sculptures like this are what breathe life into the streets of Downtown Fresno, adding character, history, and beauty to the city. ποΈ
