    Weiden sculptor Günter Mauermann created the fountain named after him from granite and bronze in 1985 and 1986. The fountain is designed as a picture arch with a veil of water, providing colorful insights into the town's history and Upper Palatinate customs. Its shape is intended to evoke the two gates between which the fountain is located.

      rather inconspicuous stands on the historic market square of the beer fountain. The name does not come by chance, because every year to the ever popular Weidener Bürgerfest there beer is tapped by a special dispensing system. It's worth it

        This impressive work of art made of granite and bronze, named after its creator Günter Mauermann, is designed as a picture sheet, showing important events from the city's history and also reflecting one or the other legend.
