The Moses Fountain (Mosesbrunnen), located in Bern’s Münsterplatz, was first constructed in the 16th century and later replaced by the current version in 1791. The centerpiece of this sculptural fountain is a detailed statue of Moses, dressed in blue and gold robes, holding the Ten Commandments. As one of many fountains in Bern’s historical center, it offers a serene spot for visitors to pause and refresh, with the option to sip from its clear, flowing water.
