The history column is the essential part of a fountain on Josef-Görres-Platz in the old town of Koblenz. It was given to the city by the state of Rhineland-Palatinate in 1992 for its 2000th anniversary. However, it was not completed and handed over to the city until June 1, 2000. The fountain with its history column was created by the sculptor Jürgen Weber. The 10.59 meter high, 3.6 ton heavy and 1.25 million DM expensive column tells the moving 2000-year history of the city of Koblenz in ten pictures from Roman times to the present day.
