EN: This fountain is located in a niche at the southeastern corner of the covered market.

The round basin is embedded in an ornamented niche. On top of the fountain there is a statue, created by Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi in 1869.
The little Alsatian winemaker is one of the earlier works of this famous French sculptor.

The original statue was replaced by a copy and moved to the Colmar Bartholdi Museum in 1986. A second copy became a gift to Colmar's American sister city Princeton.
