    Hiking

    The Eulenspiegel fountain dates from 1942 and is optically dominant in the middle of the market square in front of the market church, flanked by the town hall, bread house and Ratsapotheke. It is named after Till Eulenspiegel, a previous guest.
    (Source: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marktplatz_Einbeck#Eulenspiegel-Brunnen)
    It is historically rather doubtful whether Eulenspiegel actually stayed in Einbeck. According to legend, he is said to have apprenticed to brewery and received the order there to throw hops into the brewing kettle. But instead of the hops, he allegedly threw the master brewer's dog named "Hopf" into the kettle.

    Hiking

    The fountain is located directly on the market square next to the town hall and can be easily incorporated into a tour through the historic town.

    The Till Eulenspiegel fountain is located in front of the old town hall and the St. Jacobi church. It dates from 1942.
    The Owl Festival, named after the rogue, is celebrated here every year on the second weekend in October.
