Wrangelbrunnen, Late classical fountain in Graefekiez, Berlin, Germany.

The fountain features four statues representing major Prussian rivers: Rhine, Vistula, Oder, and Elbe, with decorative putti at the top section.

Field marshal Friedrich von Wrangel funded this fountain in 1877, which was initially placed in Tiergarten before moving to Kreuzberg in 1903.

The fountain depicts four river figures through classical sculpture, representing the main waterways that shaped Prussian geography and commerce.

Located at the intersection of Urbanstraße and Grimmstraße, the fountain provides a meeting point and water source during summer months.

The male figure of Father Rhine stands among three female representations of rivers, creating a gender-specific portrayal of Prussian waterways.
