Feuerwehrbrunnen, Public fountain at Mariannenplatz in Kreuzberg, Germany

The Feuerwehrbrunnen is a fountain on Mariannenplatz in Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg featuring three bronze firefighter statues and an octagonal basin of pink Swedish granite. The sculptures stand within a spacious water basin that forms a permanent public art installation.

The first fountain, designed by city building director Ludwig Hoffmann and executed by sculptor Valentino Casal, was unveiled on 17 November 1902, with reliefs by August Vogel and water flowing from two lion heads. Heavily damaged in the Second World War, it was demolished in 1958; a flame relief was placed on Waldemarstraße in 1960. The present fountain resulted from a 1978 competition on Mariannenplatz won by Kurt Mühlenhaupt; construction began in March 1980 and it opened on 24 October 1981, costing 697,000 marks.

The fountain's three bronze firefighters, slightly larger than life, have oversized noses and a deliberately caricatured look. Kurt Mühlenhaupt made the fountain his first large-scale sculptural work; it was chosen in 1978 by visitors to an exhibition at Bethanien and by a ten-member jury. The basin's outer wall once carried a plaque naming the artist, which disappeared in the early 21st century.

The octagonal basin lies on the semicircular area between Waldemarstraße, which crosses the square, and the southern edge buildings. The basin sits at ground level, so the rim and the bronze figures can be viewed from the paved surround; the sources do not record step-free access. The square is used for several festivals each year, including the Brunnenfest, Myfest, Sommerfest and a Christmas market.

The fountain was Kurt Mühlenhaupt's first work with large-format sculptural elements; the painter is otherwise known for Berlin milieu scenes. It also appears in the first episode of the television series Liebling Kreuzberg (1986).
