The earliest mention of the existence of Manneken Pis can be found in an administrative text, dating from —, about the water lines supplying the fountains of Brussels.
From the beginning, the fountain played an essential role in the distribution of drinking water. It stood on a column and poured water into a double rectangular basin of stone. The only representations of this first statue can be found, very schematically, in a painting by Denis Van Alsloot , representing Brussels' Ommegang of and in a preparatory drawing to this painting. The first statue was replaced by a new bronze version, commissioned in It was probably cast and installed in During this time, the column supporting the statue and the double rectangular basin collecting water were completely remodeled by Daniel Raessens.

This text is the oldest attesting that Manneken Pis had become "an object of glory appreciated by all and renowned throughout the world". It is also the first time that it served as a symbol for the people of Brussels. It is also traditionally said that after the bombardment, it was triumphantly placed again on its pedestal.
