Initially, a rectangular concrete fountain was erected in the park in 1967. Inside, there were five fountain-like water features. During the term of Mayor Wolf-Dieter Schwarz (1975–1991), bronze figures were later integrated. These were designed by the Hohenleipisch sculptor Hans Eickworth, who died in 1995, and modeled after the Elsterwerda town coat of arms used until 1994. The fountain's main figure is a bronze magpie. Two other bronze figures depict lilies. The lilies originally came from the coat of arms of the noble family von Köckeritz, who were the lords of Elsterwerda from 1367 to 1512. They were later also incorporated into the Elsterwerda town coat of arms. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markt_(Elsterwerda)

To mark its 20th anniversary in 2013, the Elsterschloss-Gymnasium Support Association commissioned the creation and installation of an art installation on the grounds of the present-day Elsterschloss-Gymnasium. As part of the "Art at the Castle" project, a bronze casting model of Elsterschloss Elsterwerda was created. This model provides information about the former and current uses of the building complex, as well as its historical context throughout its existence, thus further enriching the castle's presence. https://www.elsterschloss.de/kunstobjekt.html

Entering Elsterwerda's market square isn't just a visit to the center of a small town—it's a quiet conversation with time. The pavement speaks of centuries of trade, arguments, gossip, and celebration. And of a fire that came when everything seemed long over. The western half—a post-war space, open, almost shy, as if still wondering if it belonged. The eastern part, in contrast, is closed, staid, and as old as the city itself. A fountain watches over the square. Playful, almost foolish, with a figure that pretends to have everything under control. Perhaps a reflection of civic pride, perhaps just a tongue-in-cheek commentary on the world, a three-story ascent, with dove, blossom, and a water feature that never flows the same. As if someone had tried to bring order to the chaos of history. The rows of houses all around seem as if they have come together to stand together – against the wind, against change, against the force of events. And while the cars park on the paved areas like bored onlookers, the facades whisper of the days when horse-drawn carts set the pace and merchants still weighed their goods by hand. Elsterwerda's market square is not a postcard motif. It is a place with patina, with fractures, with substance. A place that knows more than it shows. Anyone who stops here and listens quickly realizes: This square speaks. You just have to learn to listen to its silence.

The Pulsnitz is a tributary of the Black Elster in Saxony and Brandenburg.
