Rolandbrunnen, Water well in Berlin-Mitte, Germany.
The fountain stands 10.75 meters tall with an octagonal main basin and features a central statue of Roland carved from Norwegian granite.
Kaiser Wilhelm II presented this monumental fountain to Berlin in 1902, marking the southern terminus of the Siegesallee avenue in Tiergarten.
The fountain displays medieval estates and depicts the historical rivalry between Berlin and Cölln through detailed stone reliefs.
The structure incorporates multiple smaller basins around its perimeter, creating various water flows that function throughout the warmer months.
The central figure was changed from Borussia to Roland during construction, altering the original design concept of representing Prussia.
