Location: Schaffhausen, Eastern Switzerland, Switzerland
At the southern end of Fronwagplatz is the Landsknecht or Metzgerbrunnen, a four-tube fountain and the largest fountain in the city. The heavily armed Landsknecht figure on the fountain column symbolizes the well-fortified city of Schaffhausen.

There are probably more of these beautiful fountains in Schaffhausen and they are all worth a photo! :-)
