The Athena Fountain (Pallas-Athene-Brunnen) stands proudly in front of the Austrian Parliament Building in Vienna. Completed in 1902, this neoclassical masterpiece honors Athena, the Greek goddess of wisdom, justice, and war. She holds a gilded Nike (goddess of victory) in one hand and a spear in the other, symbolizing strength and intellect. Below her sit allegorical statues representing the legislative and executive powers, along with personifications of the Danube and Inn rivers.
This iconic statue is not only a stunning example of Viennese artistry but also a powerful symbol of democratic ideals and enlightenment, fittingly placed at the heart of Austria’s political landscape.
