Three Brothers Well in Cieszyn, Monumental fountain with cast iron gazebo in Cieszyn, Poland.
The Three Brothers Well features a decorative cast iron structure situated at 282 meters elevation in the center of Cieszyn's historical district.
The first written documentation of this water source dates to 1434 when the Duchess of Cieszyn permitted local butchers to use meat benches near the well.
The fountain relates to a legend about three brothers, sons of Polish King Leszek III, who reunited at this location and established the town.
The fountain maintains continuous public access throughout the year, although the structure remains inaccessible for wheelchair users due to its design.
The well received its current form in 1868, marked in the Polish cultural heritage register since 1953 under registration number R/378/53.
