Samson's fountain is a Baroque fountain standing on Přemysl Otakar II Square in Ceske Budejovice. This fountain was built in the period from 1721 to 1727. It is one of the largest fountains in the Czech Republic with a diameter of 17 metres. The main purpose for building this fountain was to supply the town with water. In 1990 the fountain underwent reconstruction during which the original sculptures were replaced with copies . The original sculpture works are now in the Ceske Budejovice town hall.
