The Bavaria statue (German just 'Bavaria') is a bronze-cast statue of a female figure representing Bavaria's "secular patron saint", the Tellus (Mater) Bavarica ("goddess of the land of Bavaria"), located at the border of the Theresienwiese, in the southwest of the inner city where the Oktoberfest takes place.
It was built in 1892-1906, designed by the Austrian architect Georg von Hauberrisser in Gothic Revival architecture north of the Theresienwiese.
