To mark Füssen's 700th anniversary in 1995, the Sparkasse Ostallgäu bank donated the Seven Stone Fountain to the square in front of the tourist information center and the new bank building. The artist's idea was to symbolize the seven centuries of the town's history with seven columns. The columns, ranging in height from 2.80 to 3.50 meters, weigh approximately 16 tons together. They were hewn from a single block of lamprophyre from Sora near Bautzen in Upper Lusatia, a 200- to 250-million-year-old Permian rock. Each column was drilled lengthwise and divided into a head and body. The head and body are precisely ground to fit each other. When water pressure is applied to the head through the bore, it moves freely on the film of water. Different shapes of the joint surfaces cause the heads to rotate, nod, or wobble at varying speeds. The arrangement of the columns in relation to each other and the different forms of movement of the individual heads create the impression of people standing together in small groups and talking to each other.

A piece of the Fichtel Mountains far from home: Atop a 2.40-meter-high column of Epprechtstein granite stands the figure of Saint Magnus, the missionary of the Allgäu region, who vanquished the dragon, the symbol of evil, with the sign of the cross, as the fountain figure of Füssen's town fountain. After the neo-Gothic town fountain was demolished in 1965 to make way for car traffic along Reichenstrasse, the Füssen sculptor Alois Vogler created this new fountain. The figure of Magnus was cast in bronze and placed on the column from the Fichtel Mountains. The fountain was officially inaugurated on St. Magnus' Day, September 6, 1968.

At the western end of the Benedictine monastery of St. Mang lies the parish church of the same name. From the west choir of the church, a section of the city's fortifications runs to the High Castle.

From this historic town hall, Mayor Maximilian Eichstetter of the CSU (re-elected on March 8, 2026 with 74.1 percent of the votes) shapes the history of the city of Füssen and its approximately 16,000 inhabitants.
