Molins fountain, Bronze fountain in Norrmalm, Sweden

Molins fountain is a bronze sculpture in Kungsträdgården park where water cascades down over multiple sculptural levels. The water movement creates flowing patterns and sounds that change throughout the day with the current.

Johan Peter Molin received the commission in spring 1866 and showed a plaster version as the centrepiece of the 1866 Stockholm Exhibition hall, which stood near the present site. The bronze casting began in 1871 at the Royal Mint under Georg Heroldt, who died in an accident on 28 July 1871; work then continued at the Lenz-Heroldt foundry in Nuremberg. The fountain was unveiled on 25 September 1873, after Molin's death.

The fountain serves as a gathering place where locals and visitors pause to enjoy the sculpture and hear the water sounds. People often sit nearby on benches, making it a natural spot for observing daily park life.

The fountain is easy to find in central Stockholm within Kungsträdgården park and serves as a useful landmark while walking through the area. You can walk around it freely and the water runs throughout the day in most seasons.

The fountain's plaster version was the centrepiece of the 1866 Stockholm Exhibition, and its success led to a national fundraising campaign for a bronze cast. The bronze was poured at the Royal Mint in Stockholm under Georg Heroldt, who died in an accident there on 28 July 1871; work then continued in Nuremberg. The apprentice Otto Meyer, later a foundry owner, worked on it in both cities.
