Guided Story

Can you hear the gentle trickle of the water? It's almost like a call, isn't it? Look closer at the intricate figures of the Märchenbrunnen. Dieter Graupner didn't just create a fountain; he carved a slice of magic into stone. Imagine these figures coming to life under the Dresden moonlight. Just behind you, a few steps to the west, you'll find the 'Fox and the Grapes' monument. Perhaps these two artworks share their tales when no one is watching. This fountain is not just an architectural marvel; it's a living part of the city, whispering its own stories.
