Wimmerová fountain

Great place to kick off the day at 11 am with a beer and a cigarette. You’ll find locals here drinking all day. Great place to relax and to use the toilets

Historical sculpture in old town, nice place,must see in Prague

Great fountain. It was quiet and perfect to rest, the water noise was relaxing. Close to places, and you can see people coming and going, passing by. Would fountain again👌.

Relatively quiet and fresh place for a rest and an ice-cream (Angelato is just 150m far).

This fountain is so called because it’s named after Jakub Wimmer, an 18th and 19th century Czech entrepreneur who donated the fountain to the city in 1797. The fountain is about 2 metres in diameter, with a sculpture as the centrepiece of the fountain. The sculpture depicts a boy presenting grapes to a girl, so it could be a neo-classical Bacchus allegory. The two stand under a canopy from which the water flows into the fountain. The sculpture is not “cool”, nor especially artistic or particularly interesting. Just about the only thing that’s useful about the fountain is the many restaurants and cafes around it, plus the Havelské market is also nearby.
