The Rathausbrunnen, also known as Rathaus-Kump, showcases exquisite Baroque stone craftsmanship dating back to around 1600. Located in front of the town hall, it is one of the three remaining historical 'Kümpen' in the city. Initially, it was primarily used for firefighting and later for public water supply. The fountain is notably adorned with the city's coat of arms.
