Spindlerbrunnen, Public drinking fountain in Mitte, Germany.
The Spindlerbrunnen fountain rises 6.5 meters high, featuring two granite basins where water flows from the top through multiple levels.
Carl Spindler commissioned this fountain in 1891 to honor his father Wilhelm, the founder of W. Spindler company in Berlin-Spindlersfeld.
The Renaissance Revival design by architects Walter Kyllmann and Adolf Heyden represents the architectural preferences of late 19th century Berlin.
The fountain circulates water through its system, losing approximately 30 to 40 liters daily through evaporation while providing drinking water.
The structure weighs 50 tons and contains two massive granite basins measuring 3 and 4 meters in diameter, each carved from single stone blocks.
