Various communities in the Fichtelgebirge have dedicated one of their fountains to the six-office country. In Hohenberg an der Eger, right next to the castle, six granite spheres are reminiscent of the six-office country. The six offices of Wunsiedel, Hohenberg, Weißenstadt, Kirchenlamitz, Thierstein and Selb each have a name stone at the fountain.
