Brunnenbuberl

3 BradJill - 4 years ago

Brunnenbuberl (fountain boy) is a small fountain that is interesting to see when walking along Neuhauser Straße in the Old Town. You'll find the fountain along a building corner just near Karlstor. This is one of quite a few interesting and quirky fountains situated around the Old Town.

Here you will see a bronze sculpture of a nude boy, covering his eyes as a Satyr above him spits water at him. The water spills into a basin pool below. Brunnenbuberl is a curious and perhaps provocative composition. Have a quick look and then carry on with other intended sightseeing in the area.

Quite an interesting looking fountain close the gate by Karlsplatz. You will most likely pass it if you head towards Marienplatz from Karlsplatz.
The two different coloured statues make it look interesting and it does have a bit of water below.

Located on Neuhauserstrasse, just after entering the street from Karlstor is this cute little fountain. The centrepiece of the fountain is a sculpture of a Satyr (or possibly Dionysius) and boy. The water sprouts from the satyr's mouth as if spitting at the little boy. Very cute and worth a detour if in the area

Nice looking fountain here. Drink up for eternal life!
Just kidding. Don't drink the water here. There's bird poo in it. But nice place to people watch.

(Translated by Google) Very nice fountain. It is the first thing that is enjoyed when crossing the old medieval door. It is of remarkable delicacy. A detail in an angle of the pedestrian street, which is almost an embroidery that gives a touch of quality and good taste.

Muy bonita fuente. Es lo primero que se disfruta al traspasar la antigua puerta medieval. Es de una delicadeza notable. Un detalle en un ángulo de la calle peatonal , que es casi un bordado que da un toque de calidad y buen gusto.

(Translated by Google) A nice, small fountain that invites you to linger. Especially in the crowded pedestrian area the sight relaxes immensely. From time to time you can watch pigeons brushing here

Ein netter, kleiner Brunnen, der zum Verweilen einlädt. Gerade in der vollen Fußgängerzone entspannt der Anblick ungemein. Ab und an kann man Täubchen beobachten, die sich hier putzen

(Translated by Google) A very nice fountain but especially in winter because this fountain is neither covered nor turned off causing ice to form ....

Ein sehr schöner Brunnen besonders aber im Winter denn dieser Brunnen wird weder abgedeckt noch abgestellt wodurch sich Eis bildet ....
