Market Fountain at Maxplatz

The square was named in honor of the reigning Bavarian King Maximilian, on whose 25th anniversary of the throne it was inaugurated on February 16, 1825. In the lower part of Maxplatz, a fountain depicting medieval market scenes blends in with today's events.

The Maxplatz was created after the great city fire of 1823, because in Hof instead of a street market wanted to have a "real" marketplace with trees and a monument in the middle.
It was not until the 19th century that the weekly market moved from the area surrounding the town hall to Maxplatz. From the district "Orla" became by elimination of the middle development a place, on which one could move the market from the Ludwig route here.
