    Tips

    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.

      At the corner of Straße der Nationen and Georgstraße (at the bus station)

      by Johann Belz (1925-1976)

      Depiction of a highly abstracted plant, water-filled bowls emptying with a "clattering" sound

      Bronze, concrete basin

      Erected in 1968, closed in 2018 due to a defect, reopened in July 2023 after restoration by the sculptor Erik Neukirchner (grandson of Johann Belz) and repair of the water technology
