Ringerbrunnen, Bronze fountain in central Brunswick, Germany

The Ringerbrunnen fountain displays two large bronze figures engaged in a wrestling match at the intersection of Schuhstrasse and Sack streets.

German sculptor Jurgen Weber completed this public artwork in 1975, drawing inspiration from the mythological battle between Hercules and Antaeus.

The sculpture incorporates names of Weber's critics on the Antaeus figure and the artist's own name on Hercules, representing artistic conflict.

Located in a public square within walking distance of Brunswick's main attractions, the fountain serves as a central meeting point.

The wrestling figures portray the physical manifestation of artistic struggle through detailed inscriptions and muscular bronze forms.
