    The "Circle of Life", also known as the "Brühmann Fountain" (named after its creator Horst Brühmann) stands in the forecourt of Halle Cathedral. It was designed and built in 1986, handed over to the city in 1991, but was not initially displayed publicly. It was only fully restored in 2012 and found its place on the cathedral square.
