The Wild Man Fountain (Wilder-Mann-Brunnen) has existed since the beginning of the 17th century. Its water basins kept the fish fresh on the fish markets. Today, the fountain stands on the Max Reinhardt Square opposite the Grand Festival Hall. [German]
The fountain got its name from the statue on top of it. The sculpture symbolizes male power and the bond with nature. I love the idea of seeing this wild man as a counterpoint to all the high-class culture the city of Salzburg offers nearby.
