The statue refers to Fortuna, the goddess of fortune and patron saint of cities, families, and nations. The overflowing horn symbolizes the material prosperity of the fortunate person who encounters it. But the golden sphere constantly rotates on its axis, so that the water, like the influx of fortune, becomes an unpredictable force. The abundance that happens to be showered upon us can be taken away just as quickly by fate. Just look at the history of Sneek.

The bat fountain is part of a project of 11 such fountain objects in the region

beautiful there

In the middle of the part of the north wall of the church where there was apparently an extension, there is a decapitated statue. According to the literature, a statue of Mary.

The north wall of the church is well worth studying. The tufa (natural stone, not brick) is the oldest part. The monastery bricks date from later times and the Frisian yellow bricks are from later again. There appears to have been a round side extension that was demolished and the wall was filled with monastery bricks. The church is also raised, as evidenced by the top layer of the wall consisting of monastery bricks. The Romanesque windows are also bricked up with monastery bricks.

11 fountains in the eleven Frisian cities The Elfstedentocht reinvented. That is 11Fountains. Eleven internationally renowned artists decorated the eleven cultural-historical cities of Friesland with unique waterworks in 2018. Mist, ice, steam, seawater... Each city has its own story. See the eleven fountains yourself during your Elfstedentocht. Perfectly possible without ice. Just like the old lime tree in the village used to be, the 11 fountains each form a central meeting place in 'their' city. They symbolize the strong sense of community in Friesland, of mienskip as the Frisians themselves say. The fountains would never have come about without the enthusiastic support and involvement of this mienskip, represented in each city by a so-called Fountain Committee. These committees suggested possible locations, met the artist chosen for their city and informed him or her about the local history, provided public presentations and helped assess the design. Never before has such broad support been created for a complex and ambitious art project. The Bat in Bolsward, bronze 3.3 m high and 2.4 m wide, is located on the Broereplein. The facade of the burnt-down Broerekerk was the inspiration for the Belgian artist Johan Creten. In the summer, this fountain can be admired in all its glory

Never before has such broad support been created for a complex and ambitious art project. For centuries, the city coat of arms on ‘De Waag’ of Workum has been supported by two lions. They seem naïve and their theatrical pose stimulates our laughter. But as the fountain of Workum, firmly on the ground with a larger than life size, they are no longer secondary figures, but main characters. At some distance from each other, they now spray water at each other like fighting cats. ‘Look at Workum’, they seem to call out to us. Because without the coat of arms, the empty space between them suddenly offers a view of the living reality of the city.
