The Floriani fountain is one of the oldest fountains in the city of Salzburg. In the middle of the square at the Alter Markt is the former market fountain. It was first documented in 1488 to replace an old draw well, when it was possible to build a drinking water pipeline from the Gersberg over the city bridge to the Alter Markt for the first time.

Built in 1488 on the site of an old draw well, it was dedicated to Saint Florian (patron saint of firefighters). Until the beginning of the 18th century, it was the center of the annual butcher's leap on Ash Wednesday, during which butcher apprentices were "cleansed of their sins" and declared journeymen.
