Faun Fountain in Gliwice, Bronze fountain near City Hall, Gliwice, Poland.
Three iron fauns hold hands in a circular dance around a cylindrical pedestal decorated with ram heads and festoons on Zwycięstwa Street.
The fountain was cast at the Gliwice Ironworks in 1928 to mark the completion of Hotel Haus Oberschlesien, now serving as the City Hall.
Local residents refer to the three dancing figures as little devils, making this fountain a central meeting point in downtown Gliwice.
The fountain stands in front of the Municipal Office building, offering visitors a reference point for navigating through the city center.
According to local tales, the three fauns represent mayors of Gliwice, Zabrze, and Bytom who failed to unite their cities into one metropolis.
