fish fountain

The fish fountain in Feldbach is a charming gem in the heart of the city and a popular meeting point for guests and locals. Created in 1959 as part of the redesign of the church square, the fountain was made by the Feldbach stonemason and later mayor Alois Harmtodt. The characteristic fish sculpture was created by his employees Maxentius Wolf and Janisch.

Since its establishment, the fish fountain has been very popular.
Countless people from Feldbach have used it as a photo motif – many still nostalgically sit on the stone fish today, which has become a symbol of fertility and the city. With its typical design of the time and high emotional significance, it is considered a modern architectural monument of Feldbach.

Around the fountain, further sights invite exploration:

• the imposing Villa Hold,

• the historic parish church of St. Leonard,

• the inspiring Decalogue path

• and the colorful colorful church tower.

A visit to the fish fountain can be wonderfully combined with a walk through Feldbach’s city center or a café visit. A place to linger, enjoy, and remember.
