Albrechtsbrunnen, Protected cultural fountain in Innere Stadt, Vienna, Austria.
The Albrechtsbrunnen stands in front of the Albertina museum, featuring a central figure of Danubius with three tritons and allegorical river representations.
Constructed in 1869 by Moritz von Loehr and Johann Meixner, this fountain marked the period when Vienna removed its fortifications for urban development.
The fountain depicts Danubius and Vindobona alongside representations of ten rivers that flowed through territories of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
Located at coordinates 48.2042N and 16.3685E, the monument remains accessible through multiple public transportation options near the State Opera House.
Several original marble figures from the fountain were relocated or lost during World War II, altering its initial wider composition and river symbolism.
