Depicted late-Baroque fountain with statue of young Triton decorates lower part of the Great Pálffy Garden (Velká Pálffyovská zahrada) below Prague Castle.

Fountain, formed by a circular stone basin with centrally situated cast-iron statue of young trumpeting Triton on prismatic plinth, was built together with the garden in 1752.

Great Palffy Garden, one of six Baroque southern-oriented terrace gardens bellow Prague Castle, belongs among jewels of Baroque garden architecture and also among the most beautiful tourist sites in Czech capital.
