The Jaś i Małgosia fountain is a decorative landmark located in the historic spa town of Ciechocinek. The structure features two bronze figures, named after the Hansel and Gretel characters, surrounded by a basin. It serves as a popular focal point within the town's central park area, surrounded by manicured greenery. The fountain is periodically illuminated at night, enhancing its visibility within the promenade. It is situated along a primary pedestrian artery near the core of the spa district. The fountain is a non-functioning historical feature rather than an interactive water play area.
