This is the fountain at the Marktplatz in the city centre. It is embeded into the Wine Village in the moment.
There are a mare with her sucking foal displayed on the column.
There are some symbols of the Wine Village at the fountain - flambeaux, branches and vines (of course).

Beautiful fountain!
Wow, such an intricate decoration around the fountain. It is beautiful.
Was it originally a drinking fountain for horses with a trough?
It's a very intimidating fountain. Striking but vicious at the same time,
Am really enjoying the photos of Wine Festival. It reminds me of so many years ago when I was at a similar festival in Rhine-Hessen and first tasted Gurwürtztraminer, which to this day is still my favourite.
Incredibly beautiful...we need one of these in downtown Ocala - after all, Ocala is the "horse capitol of the world"! :-)
What a beautiful fountain. The gold against the dark stone is great.

How interesting this fountain is! And, I am seeing flames dancing amidst the water. are they gas torches or something else? That's remarkable. I've never seen a fountain with a fire feature like this.
Super shots!
