THE FOUNTAIN “FOUR LIONS”



The fountain named ”Four Lions” was made in 1799 in the honor of completion of the first water pipe system. Water from Čerat hill’s spring was brought to town by clay pipeline under the suggestion of military engineer Vanger. At the beginning it was located closer to City Hall, later it was moved from its previous location to release a road to Stražilovo.

There is an interesting story linked to this fountain, narrated mostly by elderly in Karlovci and it says that any one who drinks water from this fountain will come back to Karlovci one day and get married here.

Well, I got married in Sremski Karlovci and now live there :) .
