It is situated in the wider city center, close to Kollárovo square and in front of the Summer Archbishop's Palace.
The square was called Gottwaldovo during socialism in honor of the first Czechoslovak communist president Klement Gottwald, whose statue was included.
The fountain consists of a basin and a 9 meters tall sculpture of a linden flower weighing 12 tons.
Due to water continually entering the underground control spaces because of lack of maintenance after the fall of Communism in 1989, the technological and electrical parts of the fountain are severely damaged.
The only institution to publicly declare its support to include the fountain in the future is Paming a municipal company that is in the process of ceasing operation.
