Guided Story
Do you hear the gentle sound of water trickling? That's the 'Boy with Fish,' a sculpture crafted by Paul Leibküchler in 1926. Take a look at the boy holding the fish with such childlike joy, as if it just leaped from one of the nearby ponds. Notice the intricate details – from the fish’s scales to the playful expression on the boy’s face. If you turn around, you'll see the Salvatorkirche, creating a harmonious backdrop with the fountain. It feels as though the fountain whispers tales of the many people who have passed by over the years. Here's a tip: come back at sunset when the last rays of light turn the water golden.
