Depicted large circular Baroque fountain with Tritons sculpture decorates chateau garden in the front of Chateau Klášterec nad Ohrí (zámek Klášterec nad Ohrí).
The fountain was built as a part of the Baroque alterations of the Chateau complex, financed by the then owner of the estate, Michael Osvald count Thun and Hohenstein. Reconstruction under the direction of Italian architect Rossi de Lucca took place in the second half of the 17th century. The circular stone fountain with a diameter of 14 m has in its center a sculpture of Tritons, the work of sculptor Jan Brokoff from 1686.
