Donnerbrunnen is the popular name for the Providentia fountain designed by Georg Raphael Donner and built between 1737 and 1739 on the Neuer Markt in Vienna's 1st district, Innere Stadt.

In art history, the Flour Market Fountain is often mentioned, as the New Market was still called the Flour Market in the 18th century. During the construction of an underground car park, the well was temporarily removed from 2018 to 2022.
