🕰️ Taubenmarkt: Historic Trading Place
The name refers to the former bird and pigeon trade that regularly took place here.

The square is centrally located in the Old Town, near the town square, and is surrounded by historic facades and small shops.

Today, it is a popular meeting place for locals and visitors – with cafés, events, and access to cultural highlights such as the Brothausturm (Bread House Tower) and the local history museum.

⛲ Vogelhändlerbrunnen (Bird Trader Fountain): Sculpture with Local Flavor
The fountain depicts a bird trader with a basket and doves, a tribute to this former trade.

The figure is lovingly designed and conveys a piece of everyday history – a symbol of the connection between tradition and city life.

Particularly charming: The combination of the fountain basin, the figure, and the surrounding paving, which rounds off the square's atmosphere.
