    The fountain was built in 1541 and features a statue of Saint Oswald, the patron saint of the city. The fountain originally served as an important source of water for the city's residents.

    The fountain, formerly known as the "Schäflibrunnen", was built in 1664 and has been renovated several times since then.
    The names are reminiscent of the neighboring church of St. Oswald and the former Schäfli inn behind the fountain. The statue of St. Oswald - together with the Archangel Michael, patron saint of Zug - was erected in 1771. It was removed in 1883 and put back up in 1915. The paintwork is modern. The fountain was last restored in 1997.
