The six upright seahorses were created by Josef Zeller and originally belonged to the rotunda of the Elisenbrunnen fountain. They have stood here on Kapellenstraße since 1971, lending the square a calm, almost cheerful atmosphere. The dark marble bowl of the fountain forms a calm counterpoint to the filigree figures. If you pause for a moment, you will discover a hint of movement in the arrangement of the seahorses, as if they were curiously observing the water. The fountain is a silent reminder of how much Aachen has linked art and craftsmanship, even in the recent past." language: "en" type: "Place" image: "https://dam.destination.one/170050/4d69d9273de507e204dbdc1e7650eb72f32b61eba5af66816dcdc80979464f57/.jpg" breadcrumb: "Root > Aachen > Special > Destination.Data Details > Poi" --- ShareBookmark Bookmark The "Seepferdchenbrunnen" fountain ================================== - Fountain Ein symmetrischer Brunnen mit Seepferdchen aus Bronze, die Wasser speien.
