Did the fountain at Brunnen Triemliplatz always quench the thirst of so many? Here at the bustling Triemliplatz, this concrete artwork by Franz Purtschert calmly offers refreshment. Brunnen Triemliplatz was placed here in 1970. The fountain is more than just a source of water. It’s a testament to Purtschert’s vision, crafted from simple concrete. The fountain is a stark contrast to the towering Triemli Hospital nearby. Interestingly, “Triemli” itself comes from the words “Trüembach” or “Trübenbach,” a stream mentioned as far back as 1551. Brunnen Triemliplatz, with its unassuming presence, reminds us of the area’s humble beginnings. The fountain at Brunnen Triemliplatz also offers a quiet counterpoint to Triemli’s role as a major transportation hub. Trams, buses, and even the Uetlibergbahn converge here. The fountain stands as a silent observer of the constant flow of people passing through Triemliplatz. So next time you visit Brunnen Triemliplatz, take a moment. Enjoy the cool water and appreciate this piece of Zurich’s history.
