I still don’t know who to make your pictures so nicely without interface.

Please tell me this isn’t Venice again! I can’t stand the sight of the place anymore!

Obscure hint about the Statue
This lady is touched by countless hands every day.
Another obscure hint about the statue
She has some friends. One rules the waves, another makes pictures, another used to look like BB.
(PS: it obviously isn’t Venice )
Edit: hey, don’t give him clues - he’s already too good at it 
Hmm. European-style statue, southern architecture, river*, wintery weather, not Venice…
(* I think it is a river at that width, not a canal. It’s also pretty long.)
If you eyes are sharp you can see what looks like a church spire in the background, but that doesn’t tell you anything. The sign on the right reads “…LAST” in Latin script which evidences against Russia. But then again, it’s the ending of oblast.
I’m leaning towards the Baltic Sea area so far, specifically Denmark and Sweden.

My first instinct was St Petersburg, but regrettably while it has a wide river and statues like this, none of it is lined with buildings without roads 
I’m not totally convinced that the word is latin LAST - it’s pretty pixelated.
I missed the spire you mentioned - it’s good spot, though as you say it doesn’t offer a lot.
Which way do you think the water is flowing? Is it possible to tell? I think it’s flowing north, not south.

The “flow” we’re seeing is probably just the prevailing wind direction rippling the surface, though.
That was a hard one. I had to ask my European friend for help!

Good job. The hint I deleted because Eugene thought it would make it too easy for Vsotvep was that he had surely seen that water before. He’s Dutch and the Rhine flows into the North Sea in Rotterdam. The other hints were about Helvetia, the allegorical figure for Switzerland, like Britannia for GB and Columbia for the US or Marianne for France. She’s on our 0.50, 1.- and 2.- Fr. coins. The plaquette at the statue is saying, that one day, Helvetia got tired of her existence on the 2.- Fr. coin, packed her suitcase and went to venture into the world.

This is… a brick building with a modern expansion. That little window tells us, that there used to be a part of the building that is missing now. Maybe damaged by war?
Probably somewhere in Europe. There were many cities highly destroyed in WWII.
Maybe this was part of a city wall?
I’m thinking of a university like Cambridge or Oxford. I’ve seen bare brick buildings in other parts of Europe, too (not that I know many), but they’re very rare in Switzerland and southern Europe.
Man, I’m pretty sure I’ve seen this building before, but I can’t remember if live or on TV…
Ha, lucky that I was gone right before @Sanonius posted. The hints wouldn’t have mattered, Basel was the first thing that sprung to mind when I saw that picture, since I’ve not only seen the water, but also the rest of the city 
Although the Rhine (Dutch: Rijn) does flow into the North Sea in Rotterdam, it’s not called the Rhine anymore. It merges with the Meuse (Dutch: Maas), and the river in Rotterdam is actually called the New Meuse (Dutch: Nieuwe Maas).
Part of the Rhine also goes through Amsterdam, although that’s manmade. It’s called the Amsterdam-Rhine canal.

You’re not calling it the Rhine until its end? My whole life is a lie.
And I love how the IJssel just goes “screw uw, guys, Ik go diz way.”

I’ve been searching for an hour, still no luck. This style of building looks most like it’s somewhere in Poland, but it could be anywhere in Central / Northern Europe…

Found it: Toruń Castle, in Toruń, Poland. As expected, a Teutonic castle

I was in Bruges for a while, among other places, thought I was onto something of course. Lots of crow stepped gothicesque brick. That building has an obviously modern addition… Hmm…

My friend who helped me solve the previous one is Polish
I wonder how you narrowed down the search to make it manageable?
