Wittelsbacherbrunnen, Neoclassical fountain at Munich Residenz, Germany.
The Wittelsbacherbrunnen displays carved stone sculptures and water features within the central courtyard of the Munich Residenz palace complex.
King Maximilian I Joseph of Bavaria commissioned the fountain's construction between 1806 and 1809 during the expansion of the Munich Residenz.
The fountain incorporates symbols and figures that represent the power and influence of the Wittelsbach dynasty throughout Bavarian history.
Visitors can access the fountain daily through the Munich Residenz entrance, with public transportation stops located near Odeonsplatz and Marienplatz.
The fountain's water system includes original nineteenth-century mechanisms that continue to function according to their initial engineering design.
