The Merkurbrunnen fountain in Bielefeld is the work of Herbert Volwahsen.

The fountain, designed in the style of the 1960s, soon became a landmark of the city. On a bronze semicircle, similar to a globe, the 2.70 m tall Mercury floats in a moving pose, holding his staff in his right hand. On the helmet and sandals, only briefly hinted at, the small wings are recognizable. The clouds over which the Greek god hovers are symbolized by small fountains of water.
