Guided Story
Can you hear the soothing sound of water flowing? That's the Beautiful Fountain here in Südstadt, a true gem crafted by Hans-Jürgen Breuste. Take a look at the columns — one made of solid granite, the other two of shining stainless steel. Imagine how the water sparkles in the sunlight, casting tiny rainbows on the ground. This contemporary sculpture stands in stark contrast to the historic buildings nearby, like the Pauluskirche just a short walk to the northwest. It's almost as if Breuste created a dialogue between the past and the present. Take a moment to soak in the harmony of art and nature here.
