Baroque fountain with statue of Saint Michael the Archangel holding a shield with the IHS-symbol, and slaying the devil in the center of a square fountain basin was installed on Palacky square in Policka in 1727. While the statue is a work of Czech sculptor from town Litomyšl, Jirí František Pacák (ca 1670 - 1742), the sandstone basin was sculpted by local stonemaster Jakub Muller.
