        The Cholera Fountain (also Gutschmid Fountain) is a neo-Gothic fountain. It is located in Dresden on Sophienstrasse, between the Zwinger and Taschenberg Palace. It was financed by Baron Eugen von Gutschmid, who wanted to show his gratitude that Dresden had been spared from the cholera epidemic (1841/1842) that had broken out on the Oder and Lower Elbe and had also threatened Dresden. In addition to Gottfried Semper as architect, Karl-Moritz Seelig took on the design, which was ceremoniously handed over to the city on July 15, 1846.
