The Neptune Fountain on Obstplatz, designed by G. Mayr from Völs and popularly known as the "Gabelwirt", was chosen as one of the 100 most beautiful city sculptures in Italy. The bull at the entrance to the arcades, on the other hand, was created by Guido Anton Muss, a South Tyrolean sculptor from the last century. Today there are also several bars on the fruit square, such as the well-known “Nadamas”, shops and small original shops. By the way: In autumn, roasted chestnuts, called "Keschtn" in the local dialect, are offered at the fruit square.
