Fountain with a column on a base of three griffins - symbols of the city. At the top of the column are three shields, the first with the coats of arms of Gryfów Śląski (a knight and a griffin), the second with Neptune and third showing a Nereid (this one was not present). At the base of the column are two bronze figures of school children.
