In the center of Vienna is one of the famous fountains, built in the XVIII century by the famous sculptor Raphael Donner, after whom locals often call the magnificent water decoration - the Donner Fountain. In fact, in front of you is the fountain of Providence, and in the center is the figure of Providence itself - the goddess of foresight. According to the creator, it should symbolize the monarchy, glorifying it. At the edge of the fountain are four figures - the main rivers of Austria: the Enns, Ibs, March and Thrawn, they feed the country and once served as water trade routes.
