About
Caritas / 'Fountain of the golden apples'
The Caritas Fountain or 'Golden Apple Fountain' is the oldest fountain in Copenhagen. It was built in 1608 by Christian IV over one of the city's wells so that citizens could fetch fresh water. The six metre deep walled well still exists under the fountain, making it Denmark's only preserved Renaissance fountain.
