Summary[edit]

Description
English: The northern fountain and the New Castle in Stuttgart, Germany. The two fountains on the Schlossplatz (Castle Square) have been built for the birthday of Wilhelm I, king of Württemberg, on September 27th 1863. On each fountain, four statues emblematize watercourses in the former kingdom. On the depicted northern fountain the rivers Jagst (left), Tauber (middle), Donau / Danube (right), Nagold (not visible). On the southern fountain (not visible) the Neckar, Kocher, Fils und Enz. At the end of World War II the statues were stolen, but reconstructed with the help of old photographies until 1989.
Deutsch: Der nördliche Brunnen auf dem Schlossplatz und das Neue Schloss in Stuttgart. Die beiden Brunnen wurden am Geburtstag des württembergischen Königs Wilhelm I, am 27. September 1863, auf dem Schlossplatz aufgestellt. Jeweils vier Flussgenien versinnbildlichen an beiden Brunnen württembergische Flüsse. Am abgebildeten nördlichen Brunnen sind es Donau, Nagold, Tauber und Jagst, am südlichen Brunnen Neckar, Kocher, Fils und Enz. Auf dem Foto sieht man von links nach rechts Jagst, Tauber, Donau, die Nagoldfigur ist nicht zu sehen. In den Nachkriegswirren verschwanden die Figuren des Brunnens, sie wurden aber anhand von Fotografien bis 1989 rekonstruiert.
