Marktbrunnen, Medieval fountain in Goslar, Germany.
The Marktbrunnen features two bronze basins positioned one above the other, connected by a central column topped with a golden imperial eagle.
The lower basin of the fountain dates to the 12th century and represents the largest bronze casting from the Romanesque period in Germany.
Four dragon heads with donkey-like ears decorate the fountain, with two of them depicting dragons swallowing small human figures.
The fountain stands in the center of the market square since 1834, marking a central meeting point for visitors and residents.
The upper basin, created between 1200 and 1230, functioned as an independent fountain before becoming part of the current structure.
