    Some festivals take place here. On the market square there is, among other things, the Simson fountain, the town hall, whose tower can be climbed, and the beautiful building of the city pharmacy.

      The market square with the town hall and the beautiful houses is the heart of the city of Gera.

        The sandstone fountain was created in 1685 by the sculptor Caspar Junghans d. Ä. created from Rochlitz and erected in 1686. The original version consisted of Falka sandstone. Originally located in a corner of the market, it was placed in its center in 1823. Up to that time there was also an inscription on the base, which gave the names of the sculptor and the fourteen then councilors of Gera. Until 1797 it was fed by a water pipe branching off the Geraer Mühlgraben, then by a deep well created in 1709 at the town hall (Wikipedia).
