Isis Fountain

Isis Fountain

This is the Aess Fountain located in the 8th district of Vienna, which was built in 1833. The fountain consists of a four sided base with a lion's head spraying water. The base rises from an eight sided cast iron basin decorated with rose patterns. It began supplying water in 1804, mainly for the suburbs at that time. Inscriptions are attached to both the front and back of the base. At the top is a statue of Isis. This fountain was built to commemorate the opening of the Albertine water pipeline. Isis was a goddess in ancient Egypt, known in Egyptian mythology as the goddess of magic, childbirth, death, and resurrection.

The fountain was designed by Henry Astley Dabushill in 1862 and built by Baroness Bernhardt Kutz at a cost of £ 5000. The fountain is made of granite and is an octagonal shape with a diameter of 8.5 meters, featuring 18 meter red granite columns in Gothic style. It is located near Hackney Gate in Victoria Park, London. The opening ceremony of the fountain in 1862 was attended by 10000 spectators. In the second year after the installation of the fountain, the Illustrated London News called Victoria Park the best people's park in London because its facilities included a fountain.
