Jeanneke Pis, Bronze fountain statue in Îlot Sacré, Belgium.

This bronze fountain portrays a young girl with pigtails squatting and urinating, measuring 55 centimeters in height near Rue des Bouchers.

Denis Adrien Debouvrie installed this fountain in 1985 to increase interest in the Impasse de la Fidélité area of Brussels.

The fountain represents gender balance in Brussels public art, serving as a feminine counterpart to the centuries-old Manneken Pis statue.

Protected by iron gates, visitors can view the statue while tossing coins into its basin to support local charitable organizations.

The statue inspired the establishment of Delirium Café in 2003, transforming the Impasse de la Fidélité into a destination district.
