The fountain is located on Denkmalplatz, directly in the historic old town, not far from Fallersleben Castle and the Hoffmann-von-Fallersleben Museum. It is a bronze statue of August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben (1798–1874), the poet of the German national anthem. He is depicted there in a pensive, almost striding pose. The fountain was erected to honor the poet as a freedom fighter and linguist. During his lifetime, Fallersleben was often on the run from censorship due to his political texts (such as the Unpolitical Songs) and was even removed from his post as professor.
