    The Gabelmann fountain (Franconian: Gablmoo) is a baroque fountain depicting the Roman sea god Neptune in the old town of Bamberg.
    The Bamberg vernacular calls the Neptune figure "Gabelmann" because of its trident. The square below the fountain is a popular meeting place in Bamberg's pedestrian zone.

    The Bamberg dialect poet Hans Morper mentioned Gabelmann in several poems, such as this one:

    Hey, there stands the Gobl-Mo!
    Outside there is a grid.
    Inna inside, from four tubes.
    tonn them a little water carrots;
    when it glitters in the sunna,
    then you notice, this is a Brunna!
