The Brockhaus fountain on the Zeil was carved in 1984 from a single 38 ton Carrara marble block.
It is a popular meeting place in summer and the outer ring can be used as a seat.

The Frankfurt figure fountain on the Zeil has been inviting tired shoppers to settle down since 1984. It is also known as the Brockhaus Fountain, although this does not refer to the reference work of the same name, but to its creator, the artist Lutz Brockhaus (*1945 Berlin).
