The Drunkard's Fountain, also known as the Knight Hattstein Fountain, is a humorous monument in Limburg's old town. It commemorates Knight Hattstein, who was famous for his love of drinking in the 16th century. The fountain figure depicts the knight in full armor – with a jug in his hand, ready for his next drink.
