This group includes, and the Fountain of Neptune - the oldest fountain in Olomouc. It was established in 1683 through the efforts of two talented people - Michael Mandika and Vaclav Shyullera. They divided the work on the fountain. M. Mandika incisor belongs to a statue of the sea god Neptune, and B. Shyuller engaged in the development of the water tank and the steps leading to it. Neptune sends his trident down, urging the horses, whose mouths and pour water jet. Just below you can see the signature trident M. Mandika.

Over time, the flow of funds for its construction stopped, the unfinished chapel for some time stood in the square, corn all eyes and preventing movement, so in 1520 the city decided to demolish it. And now the only Fountain of Neptune resembles modern tourists that once there was a temple.
