The Residenzbrunnen Fountain was created in 1661 by the sculptor Tommaso di Garzona. It is located in the center of the Residenzplatz square next to the Cathedral. The fountain is 15 meters high.  

The fountain is the following composition. In the center is a rock surrounded by sea horses, on which there are three athletes, holding a bowl with three dolphins on their shoulders. The dolphins are holding a shell in which the newt sits and blows water out of the horn.

The Residenzbrunnen Fountain is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List as an architectural monument of the historic center of Salzburg.
