The Brabo fountain with its statue was created in 1887 by the sculptor Jef Lambeaux. It represents the local legend of Brabo, a Roman soldier who killed and cut the hand of the giant Druoon Antigoon, guilty of terrorizing sailors on the river by cutting their hands if they did not pay toll. The fountain is located in the Grote Markt, the major square of Antwerp surrounded by remarkable buildings.

Fanciful baroque touches to the gables and façades of the historical houses at the “Grote Markt” (Grand Place) in Antwerp, Belgium. In front of façades: the statue of Brabo. According to folklore, and as celebrated by the statue of Brabo, Antwerp got its name from a legend. A mythical giant called Antigoon, exacted a toll from those approaching the city, and for those who refused, he severed one of their hands and threw it into the river Scheldt. Eventually, the giant was slain by a young hero named Brabo, who cut off the giant's own hand and flung it into the river. Hence the name Antwerpen, from Dutch hand werpen—akin to Old English hand and wearpan (= to throw), that has changed to today's warp.
