Gerechtigkeitsbrunnen (Bern)
The Gerechtigkeitsbrunnen ("Fountain of Justice") is a 16th-century fountain in the ''Gerechtigkeitsgasse'' in the Old City of Bern, Switzerland. It is the only Bernese fountain to retain all original design elements,〔Caviezel et al.〕 and is listed as a cultural heritage of national significance.〔Swiss inventory of cultural property of national and regional significance (1995), p. 105.〕
Thanks to its namesake figure, Hans Gieng's famous statue of Lady Justice, the ''Gerechtigkeitsbrunnen'' surpasses all other Bernese fountains in artistic merit.〔Caviezel et al. Hofer, on page 320, notes that authors have agreed about this since the late 19th century.〕 The iconic figure was copied throughout Switzerland up until the middle of the 17th century.〔Caviezel et al., 164.〕 The statue is a copy of the original, which was largely destroyed by vandals in 1986.
==Fountain==
The fountain consists of an octagonal main basin and two smaller spillover basins. The main basin, made out of unadorned limestone plates held together with an iron ring, bears the date of one of the renovations, MDCCCXLV.〔Hofer, 318.〕 In the centre of the main basin, bronze tubes emerge from the central pedestal, which was replaced in 1949.〔 Atop it stands a narrow, festooned stone pillar decorated by an acanthus frieze.〔
