Wimmerova Fountain, Neoclassical drinking fountain in Coal Market Square, Prague, Czech Republic.
The Wimmerova Fountain features sculptures of a boy and girl holding grapes, set upon a stone pedestal in an octagonal basin.
Merchant Jakub Wimmer commissioned sculptor František Xaver Lederer to create this fountain in 1797, initially placing it at National Street.
The fountain represents the tradition of wealthy Prague merchants contributing to public infrastructure through artistic and functional installations.
