    A beautifully designed fountain, right at the beginning of the pedestrian zone

    The fountain commemorates an old postal route of Thurn and Taxis, which ran along the Bergstrasse and was also a popular travel route.
    From 1594 onwards there was a post office here.

    The post fountain was created in 1976/1977 by Wilhelm Müller. He should go to the Thurn and Taxissche station on Berstrasse. It is supposed to be Johann Wolfgang v. Göthe Rast in Heppenheim.
