"Mantje, Mantje, Timpe Te, Buttje, Buttje inne See...", said the fisherman in the Low German fairy tale "The Fisherman and His Wife" by Philipp Otto Runge.

In memory of the well-known story, the fisherman sits today at a fountain in Stade's horse market. Peering out of the water is the flounder, who wants to grant the fisherman's wishes.

Your wishes, I'm sure!
