"Fountain on the pond square, Prüm,
[...] Before the square was developed, it was also one of the cultural centers of Prüm. [...]
In 1992 the fountain designed by the Trier artist Klaus Apel was erected here. Motifs from Prüm's past are presented in six scenes. [...]
The fountain sculpture has the shape of a crown and is a reminder of the relationship between the Frankish kings and Prüm, whose most famous son Prüm, Emperor Lothar, found his last resting place here." (kulturdb.de/einobjekt.php?id=25544 )

In the scenes shown, the time from 800 to 2000 is divided into six periods of 200 years each, and the most important events in the city's history are reproduced in these six picture strips. Source: kulturdb.de/einobjekt.php?id=25544
