        How it used to be real - that's how I imagine it.

          The old town of Steinau, which is well worth seeing, begins here.

            The fountain is located at the so-called 'Säumarkt' and was only created in 2000.

              Really a different fountain. And in summer always good for a little cooling off

                The fountain is located directly at the entrance to the city center. ⛲️ #fountain #city center #entrance #water

                  The fountain "Am Säumarkt" (Pig Market) was created by Peter and Sven Klassen in 2000. The fountain commemorates the place where the pigs were brought in the morning before being taken with the shepherd into the forest outside the city. In the evening, they were returned to the "Säumarkt" and reclaimed by their owners.
