The Pauli Fountain, funded by the Pauli Foundation, was built in 1889 in the center of the market square based on a design by Friedrich Wanderer by the sculptor Georg Leistner, the bronze caster Christoph Lenz, and the stonemason Georg Suter. Designed in the late Renaissance style, the fountain features two allegorical figures dressed in ancient garments above the main basin: Erlangia, with the symbols of local industry and trade, and Alma Mater, with the symbols of scholarship. The structure in the center of the fountain features relief portraits of Margraves Christian Ernst and Alexander, and Prince Regent Luitpold of Bavaria. Source: Wikipedia

A great lake with plenty of benches, sun loungers, and rest areas. A nice playground and a pool for refreshments are right next door. The lake is tiered with varying depths. Restrooms are nearby, at the parking lot, and they are very clean.

We had the pleasure of taking a guided tour of the castle today. It was very interesting, and the guide was very entertaining and funny. The rooms are beautiful, with so much to admire and see. From the armory, library, study, fountain, chapel, anecdotes, photos, and a short musical interlude, there was even more to see. But I don't want to give everything away 😉. In any case, the visit was well worth it and very entertaining. The castle tour lasted over an hour. Photography is prohibited in the private rooms.
