    The Fountain of Joy was inaugurated by the Rostock artists Reinhard Dietrich and Jo Jastram on June 27, 1980 and is located on Rostock's University Square. As the city's meeting point, it symbolizes the unity and relationship between humans, animals and water and, with its 26 bubbles and 18 water fountains, is a symbol of the Hanseatic city and simply a great work.

        ... on closer inspection it becomes clear why the fountain is called "porn fountain" among the locals ... ;-)
