Fontanna Apolla w Poznaniu

The Apollo Fountain is a water sculpture located in Poznań's Old Town Square, featuring a central figure of the classical deity surrounded by flowing water and architectural elements. Jets of water encircle the statue, creating dynamic visual movement at the heart of the historic plaza.

The fountain was created in 2002 by sculptor Marian Konieczny to replace an earlier monument that had disappeared from the Old Town Square. It marks the return of a significant public artwork to one of the city's most important gathering places.

The fountain depicts Apollo, the Greek god of music and the arts, connecting classical mythology to everyday life in the Old Town. Local residents and visitors gather here as a meeting point, making it a central element of the square's social landscape.

The fountain is accessible year-round and sits in a central location with benches nearby for resting and observing the square. The area has plenty of space to walk around and explore the surrounding medieval neighborhoods.

The fountain is lit in the evening, transforming its appearance after dark and creating a different experience from daytime visits. This nighttime illumination adds a special dimension to the sculpture that most daytime visitors miss.
