The market place of Gernsbach is small but nice. Surrounded by historic half-timbered houses, there is a very special cultural charm here. In the middle of the market square you will find the historic fountain and not far away the town hall is a highlight worth seeing!

This fountain was central to the old town. Over four meters square his pool, fed by four iron water pipes, a towering fountain crowned with a figurative representation. The earliest mentions come from 1503 and 1578.

At this point / I would like to quickly / say something about the source
(whereby it corresponds to the art of poetry / if this 'source' is a 'well'):
To quote the incomparable humorist Heinz Erhardt (1909 - 1979), who was known to a wide audience for his word jokes and "Noch'n poem", with a short quatrain:
"There is certainly much beauty in
on the element, the wet.
Because you can drink the water.
But you can - also leave it."
(H.Erhardt)
