Thatcher Memorial Fountain, Memorial fountain in City Park, Denver, United States.

Thatcher Memorial Fountain is a bronze sculpture in City Park, featuring a central robed figure representing Colorado, flanked by three sculptural groups. Water flows from the center into a circular basin, creating a focal point within the park's layout.

Sculptor Lorado Taft created the Thatcher Memorial Fountain, dedicated in 1918 in City Park to Joseph Addison Thatcher, a wealthy Denver businessman and banker who died that same year. The memorial was funded in his memory, and its central figure represents the State of Colorado, surrounded by three groups: Loyalty, Love and Learning.

The three bronze groups around the central figure are named Loyalty, Love and Learning, the values the memorial links to Joseph Addison Thatcher's civic role. The central figure stands for the State of Colorado. Sculptor Lorado Taft modelled the whole ensemble, dedicated in 1918 in City Park.

The fountain sits at the north end of the Esplanade in City Park and is easily accessible from surrounding pathways. Benches and open green spaces throughout the park invite visitors to linger and explore the area.

The fountain was made by Lorado Taft, the Illinois sculptor whose public monuments stand across the Midwest. It was dedicated in 1918, the year Joseph Addison Thatcher died, and the central figure personifies the State of Colorado rather than a general allegory.
