    Beautiful fountain opposite the church. The fountain is meant to commemorate the expulsion from paradise.

      At that time, potatoes (Palatinate “Grumbeere”) were sold here. The Paradise Fountain is intended to remind us of the expulsion from paradise. In front of the sexton's house, which clings to the collegiate church like a swallow's nest, fresh water bubbles up for thirsty city visitors.

        In front of the sexton's house, which sticks to the collegiate church like a swallow's nest, fresh water bubbles up for the thirsty city visitor. Prof. Gernot Rumpf's Fountain of Paradise has been on the potato market in Neustadt an der Weinstrasse since 1973. Sculpture of a tree of life with large leaves and various fruits, Adam and Eve are depicted in relief on two sides of the trunk. Next to the fountain basin lies the snake with the girl's head and the half-forgotten apple. The tree gives off water that flows back to the source from which the tree grows and symbolizes the eternal cycle of life. (net find)

          Very nicely represented the paradise. With the snake woman and the apple. Well accomplished!

            It is a very beautiful fountain. The artist has implemented the theme of the expulsion from paradise very well and vividly, brilliant.

                    The Paradise Fountain, also called Adam and Eve Fountain, was built in 1973 on the Potato Market.
