Gänselieselbrunnen

Take a moment to admire this intricate piece of art. Can you feel the whispers of history rising from the cobblestones of the old town? The bronze girl with her geese has witnessed many a tale. There's a local tradition for newly minted PhDs to place flowers here and give the statue a kiss. It's a kind of unofficial ritual believed to bring good luck. Turn around, and you’ll see the Old Town Hall casting its shadow over the fountain since 1901. And further back, St. Johannis Church, whose bells have marked the passage of time. The Gänseliesel watches over more than just geese – she’s a silent witness to the vibrant life of the city for over a century.
