    The Art Deco style mosaic fountain was built for the International Horticultural Exhibition in 1926. The design comes from Hans Poelzig and his wife Marlene Moeschke-Poelzig. The fountain, decorated with mosaic stones, is reminiscent of a plant.

      The mosaic fountain was built on the occasion of the International Horticultural Exhibition of 1926 according to a design by Hans Poelzig and his wife Marlene Moeschke-Poelzig in the style of Art Deco. The shape of the fountain is designed to match the surroundings, based on a plant. Three stylized flowers grow from a round fountain bowl. The entire fountain is covered with around half a million mosaic stones in the colors earth brown, gray, green, blue, orange, yellow and gold. The fountain shows an expressionistic design language with oriental influences.
