    The Jakobsbrunnen is an interesting object in its design. On the pedestal is a man leaning on a walking stick and holding a Bible in the other. A pious wanderer, then, who wants to convey a message. Below him are fish on four sides, but they don't give water. The faucets are placed over four basins. A fountain that is characterized by a very individual touch.

      This is a drinking water fountain! Ideal for quickly filling up the bottle

        At the junction Hauptstrasse / Neugasse, not far from the harbor, there is the 19th century Jakobbrunnen, a tribute to the Jakobskapelle, an early medieval resting place for pilgrims to Santiago de Compostela. The Jacob's well is crowned by the figure of Jacob and the bell in the well column was rung twice a day by hand twice a day. Even today, the bell calls daily at 11 clock and 18 clock to Ave and reminiscent of their inscription: "St. James, ora pro nobis".
