    Market Fountain, Plochingen am Neckar

    The market fountain was created in 1978 by the artist Karl Ulrich Nuß from Strümpfelbach. Atop the fountain column stand the fish man and fish woman, personifications of the Neckar and Fils rivers, symbolizing their confluence in Plochingen. The column itself is adorned with reliefs illustrating significant events in Plochingen's history.

    The fountain in the market square dates from 1978. A fisherman and a fisherwoman on the fountain column symbolize the Neckar and Fils rivers. The Fils flows into the Neckar near Plochingen. The reliefs on the fountain column depict events from Plochingen's history.

    It's probably nicer in summer.
