Lions Fountain, Jerusalem, Bronze fountain in Bloomfield Park, Jerusalem, Israel.

The Lions Fountain features multiple water flows and detailed sculptures of lions, doves, and mice arranged around a central tree structure.

German sculptor Gernot Rumpf created this fountain in 1989 as a gift from West Germany, marking Jerusalem's first municipal water feature.

The fountain's three tree branches represent Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, while seven water streams reflect biblical numerical significance.

During summer months, the fountain provides a cooling spot where children play in the water while families gather in Bloomfield Park.

The municipal emblem incorporates the Lion of Judah motif, connecting the fountain's design to Jerusalem's official symbolism.
