This fountain is about 6 m high. The water is flowing down the troughs into a pool at the base. It was built in 1985 by Torbjorn Fjeldstad for Lom and Skak community.
The small metal plaque reads that the "sculpture" reminds of farmers irrigating their fields by means of similar equipment: Lom is located in very dry area and artificial irrigation used to be very important here.
