List of fountains in Nuremberg
This is a list of fountains in Nuremberg .
history
Up to the present day, artistically designed fountains have been created as elements that invigorate the city. The beautiful fountain on the main market, completely renewed under historicism , was originally built in the 14th century.
In 1821 the Albrecht Dürer Fountain on Maxplatz was created in classicist forms based on a design by Carl Alexander von Heideloff; it is also a monument to Willibald Pirckheimer.
One of the youngest fountains in Nuremberg's city history is the Ehekarussell , which was erected on the square in front of the White Tower in 1984 and is the largest figure fountain in Europe from the 20th century.
