Schloßplatzspringbrunnen, Double fountain system in Schloßplatz, Stuttgart, Germany.
The Schloßplatzspringbrunnen features two matching fountains with round basins, central chalices, and water flowing through multiple levels into collecting pools.
Constructed in 1863 under architect Christian Friedrich von Leins and sculptor Karl Kopp, these fountains were created to honor Wilhelm I of Württemberg.
Eight figures around the fountains represent major rivers of Württemberg, including the Neckar, Kocher, Fils, Enz, Danube, Nagold, Tauber, and Jagst.
The fountains operate during the warm season from May through October, providing a central meeting point in Stuttgart's main square.
The northern fountain's original figures, lost in 1945, were reconstructed using historical photographs and recast in aluminum by Doris Schmauder in 1989.
