Most people are familiar with the Washington Monument in Washington, DC, and it doesn't take a trip to Paris to know what the Eiffel Tower is. But some monuments are a little more unusual.

Here are some lesser-known creations from around the world, from a Transformers-style statue to a fountain depicting a child-eating ogre.

Bizarre. The ogre eating the children was especially strange.

When I was a child. The shopping mall, in remote Dover, Delaware had a copy, in bronze, of the Manakin Pis. My mother would cringe as my sister pointed out his wiener on every trip.
