Springvandet Agnete og Havmanden er en skulptur ved Aarhus Rådhus på Park Allé. Skulpturen er lavet af Johannes Bjerg (1886-1955) - billedhugger og direktør for Kunstakademiet fra 1943.
Johannes Bjerg arbejdede med at give den menneskelige skikkelse et særligt kraftfuldt udtryk med proportioner, som ikke stemmer overens med vores anatomi. Forbilledet var kunstneren El Greco.

The fountain Agnete and the Merman is a sculpture placed in front of the City Hall in Aarhus in the Park Allé avenue. The sculpture is created by Johannes Bjerg (1886-1955) - sculptor and director of the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts from 1943.
His work focused on giving the human figure a particularly powerful expression using proportions that did not correspond with the human anatomy. His great example was El Greco the artist.
