Fountain
The “Türe-Lüre-Ließje”, completed in 1967, depicts an old Aachen nursery rhyme.

 

Little Lieschen, who was often taken to whining, had an urgent call of nature and had to return home quickly. However, the naughty rascals blocked her path, so that she was forced to squat down in the middle of the circle and let out a little rivulet. The name of the fountain originates from the occupation of Aachen by the French from 1794-1814. “Türelür” probably meant “always the same tune”, or “always the same whingeing and whining”.
