Fabeltierbrunnen Simplicissimus

Highlight • Monument

one of three fountains on the main street that deal thematically with Grimmelshausen and his Simplicissimus.
The fabulous animal fountain was built in 1992. The group of figures, designed by Ernemann Sander from Königswinter, shows the poet with the figure from the title engraving of "Simplicissimus".
Grimmelshausen leans devotedly against his muse, the satyr, who teaches him from a book of mysterious signs.

***
The new hut is well received, it was like a dovecote.

Grimmelshausen Fountain

Highlight • Monument

In front of the town hall, the fountain monument, created by the Italian sculptor Giacomo Manzù (1908-1991) and inaugurated in 1977, commemorates the episode from Grimmelshausen's main work "The Adventurous Simplicissimus". The fountain was donated by Sentor Dr. Franz Burda, honorary citizen of Renchen.
