Lipsia-Brunnen, Ornamental fountain in central Leipzig, Germany

The Lipsia-Brunnen fountain features a red granite structure with multiple basins supported by a column adorned with four bearded male faces.

The fountain, designed by physician and sculptor Max Lange in 1913, received first prize in a competition for city beautification projects.

Four nude children sculptures stand beneath the upper basin, holding hands while seeking protection from the cascading water above them.

The fountain sits at the triangular intersection of Kleine Fleischergasse and Barfußgäßchen, opposite Germany's oldest coffee house, Zum Arabischen Coffe Baum.

The name Lipsia derives from the adjacent Lipsia-Haus building, using the Latin designation for the city of Leipzig.
