    The Nibelung Monument in Tulln, also known as the Nibelung Fountain, commemorates a scene from the medieval epic "Nibelungenlied": the festive reception of the Burgundian princess Kriemhild by the Hunnic king Etzel in Tulln. The monument features life-size bronze figures of the central characters of this scene, including Kriemhild with her retinue and Etzel with his companions, symbolically complemented by a child as a sign of their future union. Beneath the figures is an intricately designed fountain, whose jets appear to rise from an open book, the Nibelungenlied itself.

    The interplay of water and light creates a unique atmosphere that symbolizes the connection between East and West. The monument was inaugurated in 2005, and the surrounding square, Nibelungenplatz, was redesigned as an inviting public space. The Nibelung Monument blends medieval legend with contemporary art and stands as an impressive testament to history, legend, and urban design.
