High Jet Fountain of 1873, Vienna The High Jet Fountain is a fountain in Vienna. It is located on Schwarzenbergplatz and was inaugurated on October 24, 1873, in the presence of Emperor Franz Joseph I, to mark the completion of the First Vienna High Spring Water Pipeline after a construction period of four months. Anton Gabrielli, the contractor for the water pipeline, donated 200,000 crowns for the construction of the fountain, which was commissioned by the City of Vienna and built by the contractor Gustav Bruck. In 1886/87, extensive considerations were made regarding the regulation of Schwarzenbergplatz and, consequently, the redesign of the High Jet Fountain. The designs of the important sculptors Viktor Tilgner (1844–1896)[4] and Rudolf Weyr (1847–1914) were presented to the public at the Vienna Künstlerhaus from the end of January 1887, but no decision was made in their favor. Later, the fountain, designed in the style of a fountain lumineuse by the architect Oskar Marmorek (1863–1909), was transformed into an illuminated fountain at a cost of 285,000 crowns and opened on June 23, 1906. At night, it glows in red, pink, yellow, violet, blue, and green. Text / Source: Wikipedia https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hochstrahlbrunnen

One of the few places with deep shadows along Alte Donau. Perfect for taking a rest and a swim on really hot days.

Nice place to jump into the water, well paved, but very narrow in places. Drive carefully!

nice to drive, - luckily the weather wasn't so good, so we got through.

Rest area with toilet

Fountain in front of Belvedere Castle

I come here regularly, and every time the fountain is illuminated and brightly lit, my heart leaps with joy, just like the child who, back in my day, watched the changing and vibrant colors of the high jet of water with such delight in the square. And yes, even when the fountain is dry, the beautiful stones within it are still remarkable and lovely to behold.
