    Not far from the Maison du Tourisme is the Hurlus fountain, a work by Bernard Verhaeghe, undisputed master of draped shapes. The first of the five sculptures embodies the emblem of the Hurlus: two hands together hanging from a chain. The four other figures tell the tragic adventures of the Hurlus as rebels, highwaymen and plunderers: the climbing Hurlu, the screaming Hurlu, the Hurlu hiding. The hanged Hurlu testifies to the violent oppression they suffered.
