Pumucklbrunnen, Public drinking fountain in Schwabing-West, Germany.

The fountain features a tall stone stele with a bronze dancing goblin figure on top and three smaller water dispensers arranged in circular formation.

Architect Claus Nageler constructed this fountain in 1985 as a tribute to the fictional character created by author Ellis Kaut for German children.

The bronze figure represents Pumuckl, a mischievous goblin from German folklore who appears in television series, books, and other media formats.

Located near a children's playground in western Luitpoldpark, the fountain provides fresh drinking water from three accessible points designed for young visitors.

The bronze Pumuckl figure releases water jets between three and four meters high at random intervals, creating an element of surprise for observers.
