Fontanna Prozerpiny w Poznaniu, Baroque fountain at Old Market Square, Poznań, Poland
The Proserpina Fountain features a sandstone structure depicting the mythological scene of Proserpina's abduction by the ruler of the underworld.
The fountain, completed in 1766 by sculptor Augustyn Schöps, replaced earlier wooden figures of lions and deer that stood in the market square.
The fountain basin displays four relief sculptures representing the elements of fire, air, water, and earth, alongside the city coat of arms.
The fountain stands in front of the Town Hall, making it a central reference point for visitors exploring the Old Market Square.
Soccer fans collected funds to repair the fountain after celebratory damage during the 2010 Polish Championship victory of Lech Poznań.
