Fountain can be found in the back of Safarikovo square. It was
created in 1959 by sculptor Tibor Bartfay, finally disigned by Livia Moryova.
Fountain shows the inflated young woman with a rose (at present unfortunately a bit
damaged) standing on a pedestal, placed in a rectangular tank. The statue is 2,6
meters tall made from laminated bronze. Water springs from circular marble bowl
and three streams within the tank.
Fountains,managed by Paming, are put into operation after the spring inspection,
in april - may, and usually go to "winter sleep" in october.
