Vierröhrenbrunnen Würzburg

In front of the town hall is the so-called four-tube fountain from the middle of the 18th century. The central obelisk carries on its top a figure of Frankonia with Herzogshut, Sturmfahne and sword. It is a symbol and patron saint of the former Duchy of Franconia. The image program is supplemented by the personifications of the four cardinal virtues: the bravery with helmet and lion skin, the justice with the balance, the wisdom with book and finally the moderation that pours water from a pot into the goblet with wine.

The artist imagined dolphins as he had never seen one. Do they look rather unusual 😂
