      The Klapperbrunnen (Clapper Fountain) has been part of the Purple Path since Chemnitz's year as a European Capital of Culture.

      Quote: A cascade of lady's mantle leaves and blossoms served as the model for the "Klapperbrunnen" (Clapper Fountain) by the sculptor Johann Belz. A branching pipe structure grows from a flat, square concrete basin, supplying small fountains with water. Some of them tip over and empty with a clatter, giving this work its name.

      If it's on the path and the lights are on, you can definitely go there.
