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 artfully designed fountain, whose jets appear to rise from an open book, the Nibelungenlied itself.
