Town Hall Fountain, Sempach

The fountain and lion date back to 1550, the granite basin to the 17th century.

Until the high-pressure water supply was built in 1891, the town of Sempach was supplied primarily by its town fountains and their various sources. Of these fountains, the town hall fountain is one of the fountains that still exists today. In 1555, the Lucerne Council allowed the town of Sempach to build a fountain. The fountain and lion (the original lion is in the town hall museum) date back to 1550, the granite basin to the 17th century (renovated in 1927).
