Fountain Karl-Borromäus, Heritage fountain in Landstraße, Austria.

The Karl-Borromäus Fountain stands with marble and bronze construction, featuring detailed carvings and ornamental elements created by artist Josef Engelhart.

Inaugurated on May 25, 1909, this fountain was commissioned to commemorate the 60th birthday of Karl Lueger, who served as Vienna's mayor.

The fountain bears the name of Charles Borromeo, a cardinal and archbishop of Milan who received canonization in 1610.

Located at coordinates 48.2014 latitude and 16.3889 longitude, visitors can find this protected monument within Karl-Borromäus-Platz in the Landstraße district.

The fountain design resulted from collaboration between architect Jože Plečnik and Josef Engelhart, incorporating early 20th-century Viennese architectural elements.
