The watershed fountain in front of the Ludwig Doerfler Gallery stands on the European watershed between the North Sea and the Black Sea. Some of Schillingsfürst's circular trails also start here.

In front of the Dörfler-Galerie, this modern fountain, which symbolizes the watershed, splashing. The water bubbling out of the stone splits into two courses, which meander in different directions. They represent the Rhine and the Danube.
