The project “Respect the mountains” aims to raise awareness of environmentally friendly conduct among visitors, locals and tourism professionals in the Dolomites UNESCO World Heritage Site. It seeks to encourage everyone to act respectfully and responsibly in the mountains as well as in everyday life. Its key topics are potable water and waste prevention.
The first fountain in Brixen with running water was located by the White Tower. That is why the Fischbänke, the fish market where the fish brought into the city was sold, were located there as well. On occasion of the city’s 1,050th anniversary celebrations in the autumn of 1951, Albuingasse alley was redesigned and a new fountain was erected at the White Tower and inaugurated on 28 October 1951. The bronze figure depicts the patron saint of the Brixen parish church, St. Michael, slaying the dragon. The statue was created by the sculptor Hans Plangger, whose father Armin was the commander of the Brixen security guard before World War I.
One of the first public fountains in Brixen was located on the small square in Hartwiggasse alley, formerly called “im Winkel” – “tucked in the corner”. It was already mentioned in the city law book of 1604. Today’s fountain is a good reconstruction done in the typical octagonal Brixen style.

According to the city law book of 1604, one of the city’s ten public draw wells was located right outside the former Anreiterische Trinkstube tavern under the Große Lauben arcades. The Anreiterische Trinkstube became Café Pircher in 1822. In 1913, the new Hotel Tirol was built in that place, which nowadays houses a branch office of the Volksbank bank. The fountain is still in the same place, however, and while it has been restored, its traditional shape has been preserved.

Lions have commonly been used as fountain decorations since ancient times. The motif was particularly popular during the Baroque period. The marble fountain by the former city wall (on the corner of Regensburger Allee and Kassianstraße) with its lion’s head water outlet and water basin in the shape of a seashell also dates back to that period.
There has always been a fountain on the cathedral square, even more so because the square also was the location of the local cattle markets until 1820. Originally, a fountain was located in front of the Trapp house, which houses the public library today. When the police ordered for two large flowerbeds bounded by wire fences to be laid out on the cathedral square in 1952 to prevent larger groups of people from gathering, a waterspout fountain was erected in the northern flowerbed (pictured). On occasion of the redesign of the cathedral square in 1989, artist Martin Rainer (1923–2012) created the Lebensbrunnen fountain. The bronze pyramid in the marble basin represents the different stages of human life and the circle of life as a spiral which springs from the hand of God and returns to it in the end.

Adlerbrückengasse alley in Brixen was redesigned in 2001. In the process, the project engineer, the architect Stanislao Fierro, also designed a modern fountain located in the corner between the ramp leading up to the bridge and the stairs under the Nepomukbogen archway, reminding people of the times when the laundresses would pass underneath the archway to descend the stairs to the Eisack river.

Even the city law book of 1604 referred to a public fountain “by the mill stream in Stufels”. It was relocated several times due to the flood of 1882, the construction of the new bank reinforcements, and the construction of a new road, Elvaser Straße. It has, however, always remained in the same general area.

After the great flood of 1882, the Eisack and Rienz rivers in Brixen were obstructed and the confluence relocated approximately 300 metres downriver. The embellishment association, which was founded in 1885, created a green space in the newly won area between the two rivers and named it “Rappanlagen” in honour of the then governor, Franz von Rapp. The new space also received a fountain.
