Disznófő Spring, Natural spring in Budapest District XII, Hungary

Disznófő Spring is a natural water source in Budapest that emerges from Pannonian sandstone layers at approximately 378 meters elevation. The flow is marked by a cast iron boar head sculpture that serves as the distinctive outlet for the water.

The spring house structure was built in the 1820s to organize the natural water resource for regular use. The cast iron boar head decoration was added in the 1890s, transforming the simple spring into a neighborhood landmark.

The name Disznófő is often read as "pig's head", but the 1982 Budai-hegység guidebook argues the suffix fő once meant spring, so it is really "Pig Spring". The pig association comes from the wild boars once common here, and the German name Saukopf. The iron boar head on the spring house, made in the 1890s, gave the nearby Disznófő restaurant its name.

The spring now stands on private land, so the water and the boar-head spout can only be seen from outside. A green-marked hiking trail passes directly beside it, and a monument to Lajos Kossuth stands a short walk away. The spring house sits on the left side of the Harang-völgy valley, on the eastern flank of Hármaskút-tető.

The 1982 Budai-hegység guidebook argued the name was misread: Disznófő does not mean pig's head but pig spring, since the old suffix fő meant spring, as in Körösfő or Marosfő. The iron boar head on the spout, added in the 1890s, reinforced the wrong reading. The Disznófő restaurant, built in the 1840s, could seat 600 by 1857 and still served 120 guests in 1990–91.
