Peter Henlein Fountain
The Peter Henlein Fountain on Hefnersplatz in Nuremberg was built in honor of the alleged inventor of the pocket watch, Peter Henlein . The fountain, donated by the city of Nuremberg and the watchmakers' association, was unveiled at the opening of a watch exhibition in 1905. The bronze statue was made by the Nuremberg art foundry Ernst Lenz based on a model by the Berlin sculptor Max Meißner (* 1859) .
