Čukur Fountain, Protected monument fountain in Stari Grad, Serbia.
Čukur Fountain is a protected monument in Stari Grad featuring a bronze sculpture of a boy holding a broken jug, created by Serbian sculptor Simeon Roksandić. The work showcases a figurative composition where water flows from the jug into a marble basin below.
The fountain was created in the 1930s as an artistic work in this part of the city. The monument has endured changes over the decades and underwent significant restoration work to return it to its original form.
The fountain takes its name from a local family and has shaped how people gather in this part of the city. Visitors can observe how the sculpture remains part of the everyday rhythm of the neighborhood.
The fountain is located in a central part of Stari Grad and is easily accessible on foot from nearby streets. A marble bench near the sculpture provides a place to sit and observe the water feature at leisure.
The bronze sculpture was severely damaged and broken into multiple pieces before being completely restored. This reconstruction allowed the artwork to be preserved in its full form for future visitors.
