The fountain features 300 nozzles that can reach heights of up to 40 meters.
The water basin covers an area of approximately 10,000 square meters.
During winter, the basin is converted into an outdoor ice skating rink.
The fountain uses both LED and standard floodlighting to achieve high-contrast nighttime effects.
It was inaugurated in 2009 to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the first free elections in post-communist Poland.
The Wrocław Multimedia Fountain is the largest water feature of its kind in Poland, spanning nearly one hectare. It features 300 water nozzles, 800 light points, and three fire nozzles synchronized to orchestral and modern music. The fountain system operates through a computerized control center that manages complex water choreography. It is situated within the Pergola, an architectural structure surrounding the historical Centennial Hall complex. The shows utilize a projection screen created by water mist, allowing for visual displays and multimedia storytelling. It is a central feature of the Szczytnicki Park landscape design.
From the elevated walkway of the Pergola looking downward toward the fountain with the Centennial Hall in the background.
Bring a waterproof jacket if you plan to stand in the front rows, as wind can cause mist to spray the crowd.
Check the official fountain website before visiting to confirm if a specific show is scheduled for that day.
Walk the full length of the Pergola for different perspectives of the light displays.
Do not attempt to walk on the edge of the fountain basin, as the stone surfaces can be slippery and are monitored for safety.
The fountain operates seasonally from spring through autumn; it is closed during the winter months when the area functions as an ice rink.
