    The Lion Fountain once played an important role in the city's water supply. It likely dates back to the early modern period and is crowned by a lion, the heraldic animal of the Electorate of the Palatinate.

    The lion fountain on University Square is worth seeing. In winter, embedded in the Christmas market that takes place there. Shops and restaurants all around.
