kašna / fountain Týn nad Vltavou, Czech republic - Converted Fountains on Waymarking.com

ENG: Baroque fountain in the square, dated 1759. This is probably the date of repair, the fountain is probably older. It served as the main source of drinking water for city residents and domestic animals. In 1821, the supply of cattle was banned in the square and the fountain enclosed with twelve wooden poles with chains. Not in use now.

CZ: Barokní kašna na námestí, datovaná 1759. Jedná se pravdepodobne o datum opravy, kašna je patrne starší. Sloužila jako hlavní zdroj pitné vody pro obyvatele mesta i domácí zvírata. V roce 1821 bylo napájení dobytka na námestí zakázáno a kašna obestavena dvanácti drevenými sloupy s retezy. Po roce 1915, kdy získalo mesto novou vodovodní sít, ztratila kašna svuj úcel a byla zachována jako historická dominanta námestí.
