    The porcelain fountain reflects a piece of Selber tradition, as the white gold is also produced here.

    The eye-catcher on Martin-Luther-Platz is the porcelain fountain, which was built in its original form in 1977 based on designs by Hans Achtziger and Erich Höfer.
    In 2003 it was redesigned by the Barbara Rumpf porcelain manufacturer using over 60,000 porcelain plates. Since then it has shined in fresh white, blue, turquoise and gold tones. The columns symbolize the smoking chimneys of the porcelain factories.
    The fountain is decorated with plants in spring/summer/autumn and the lighting bathes it in a magical light at night.
