This fountain has a central sculpture of Hercules fighting a lion. Water spouts from the lion's mouth as well as from the sides of the pond.
No information could be found about the artist but the fountain is listed on Austria's list of national Heritage sites. And this website (visit link) indicates that the eighteenth-century statue was installed in 1948.
