It cannot be ignored that the Wijngaardplein is also the staging point for the coachmen. The horses enjoy a short break here and get to drink the water from the horse fountain.

On the vineyard square, close to the beguinage, the coachmen often stop waiting for customers. There the horses can quench their thirst in this fountain specially dedicated to them.

Close to the romantic Minnewater park and just past the bridge of the Beguinage you can find this horse fountain. The fountain with the known horse heads is specially made for the horses in Bruges.
Horse coach rides in the Bruges city centre are very popular by the numerous domestic and foreign tourists. All tours start and end at the market square, but they all pass alongside the fountain on their way, making sure the horses are able to drink if they want to.
