Guided Story
Do you hear the gentle sound of water? That's the inviting melody of the Röhrenbrunnen. Take a look at the metal tubes, how they twist and turn, almost like a dance. Heinz Tobolla, the artist, had a knack for capturing movement in solid structures. Imagine him standing here in 1971, watching his creation as it seamlessly melded with the city's energy. Turn around and you'll see the historic facades of Komphausbadstraße, adding charm to the square. This blend of tradition and modern art is what makes this place so special. Just a few steps to the south, you can catch a glimpse of the silhouette of St. Nicholas Church, and to the north, the tranquility of Sandkaulpark. It's a spot where the past gently meets the present.
