Matthias Fountain

King Matthias Hunt Fountain, Matthias Corvinus Fountain, Matthias Fountain, Mátyás kútja
Hungary, Budapest
The Matthias Fountain is located near the western wall of Buda Castle. It was opened in 1904. The fountain is a bronze sculptural composition based on a historical legend: King Matthias hunting in the forest, surrounded by his dogs, as well as a forester and his daughter, who fell in love with the king, but did not achieve reciprocity. The fountain is one of the favorite places for tourists, it is considered a good omen to throw a coin into it.
