Fountains by Location
Kansas City Metro Area
Kansas City’s unique and varied water sculptures and statuary do more than give our neighborhoods and public spaces vitality and a special sense of place. Each fountain commemorates and celebrates the visions, deeds, and generosity of generations of Kansas Citians who helped make so many of our collective wishes come true.
Kansas City Metro Area
River Market, Downtown KC to Liberty Memorial
Start your fountain tour where Kansas City was first established, down in the historic River Market. Once the oldest incorporated district, the River Market is now a vigorous and exciting neighborhood with major attractions like the City Market, our area’s largest farmers’ market bringing “Farm to Table” produce and goods, the Arabia Steamboat Museum, where you’ll find your first fountain, and where the Kansas City Streetcar starts.
River Market to Liberty Memorial
Midtown Fountains
Many of Kansas City’s Midtown fountains are tributes in remembrance of those who worked tirelessly to better their community, those who vowed to protect their community, and those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

Country Club Plaza
Many of Kansas City’s most famous fountains and sculptures are found on the Country Club Plaza, one of the nation’s first suburban shopping districts and a veritable outdoor museum of Romantic Spanish architecture and European art.
Country Club Plaza
Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art
The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art arose from the instincts and ambitions of two private individuals who shared the dream of providing a public art museum for Kansas City and the surrounding region.
