Hiking

The New Fountain in Mainz's Bleichenviertel is a late Baroque building. It was built between 1724 and 1726 by Johannes Weydt (court and city architect under Elector Lothar Franz von Schönborn). The most striking feature of the fountain is the approximately 12 meter high obelisk in the center, which is covered with bas-reliefs on various themes. At its base there are a total of four sculptures, each depicting two river gods and two lions. The oval basin and the obelisk are made of red sandstone.
