    The Kolinbrunnen in Zug, also known as the Ochsenbrunnen, is a historical landmark on Kolinplatz1. It was built in 1541 and is decorated with a statue of Wolfgang Kolin, an important citizen of the city. The statue shows him as a banner bearer with the shield and standard of Zug.

    The fountain originally served as an important part of the city's water supply and was a central meeting place for residents.

    The Kolin fountain at Kolinplatz is probably the most beautiful in the old town of Zug.
    To this day it is not known exactly who the figure on the pedestal is supposed to represent. Opposite the Kolin fountain is the Zytturm, Zug's landmark par excellence.
