The Lindwurm (built around 1590), Klagenfurt’s heraldic animal, originally a bipedal dragon, which glides past the city tower is situated at the Neuer Platz in Klagenfurt. It commemorates the origins of the city as told in the legend of its foundation. The fountain with its monster, statue of Hercules and Renaissance railing was completed in 1636. At the background the city hall, the actual centre of Klagenfurt am Wörthersee. Housing the town hall since 1918, this Renaissance palace owned by the Counts of Rosenberg was built in 1650.
