At the Vegetable Market, our attention is immediately attracted by a massive fountain with gargoyles and a number of Baroque sculptures. It was built between 1693 and 1695 by the architect Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach. The basin of the fountain bears a sixpointed layout which serves as a base for imitation rocks with caves. There are many mythical and allegorical figures to be seen, including Heracles leading the three-headed dog Cerberus on a chain. The work is considered to be the most valuable monument of Baroque sculpture in Brno.
