Studzienka at the Old Market Square in Poznań, located at the western wall of the Town Hall. The pedestal was designed according to the idea of ​​the Poznań builder Stahl, while the bronze statue is the work of the sculptor Józef Wackerle, who was posed by one of the Goldenring winery processors - Jadwiga Gadziemska from Piątkowo. The model herself never had anything to do with Bambras, at that time she was simply an employee of the Goldenring winery. The figurine depicts a woman in a characteristic Bamberg dress, with slings and jugs used in winemaking. The well basin, into which the water flowed in two streams, was intended for a drinking trough for horses, but the city people also used it. In addition, there were also two small drinking troughs for dogs and a plaque with the name of the founder, Poznań merchant and winemaker Leopold Goldenring. The well was unveiled with a girl in Bamberg costume in 1915. Originally, it stood in the Old Market Square in front of the building houses, in front of ul. Caretaker. In 1929, at the request of the municipality, the well was moved to the west wall of the old town hall. After the end of World War II, Bamberka was stored in warehouses and only in 1964 it was placed at ul. Mostowa, in front of the building of the former Masonic Lodge. In 1977, the well returned to the Old Market Square, where it was erected near the place where it stood in the interwar period. In 1998 at the well of the German Chancellor Helmut Kohl met the Poznań Bambras.
