Art objects in which the artist uses water as a dynamic component of the design fascinate artists and viewers alike. Lichtenberg is home to many such art objects, most of which are known as fountains.

For this tour, I have selected 10 fountains, some of which are unfortunately no longer in use, which offer a good introduction to the diverse design possibilities with water.

There are many other objects and sights along the tour that are well worth a visit.
