The attraction is motion: different sculptural parts splash, turn and seem to perform against one another. Knowing that the fountain occupies the old theatre site makes its playful stage-like arrangement more interesting. It is a short outdoor art stop that fits easily between the old town, Kunsthalle and nearby museums.
What to look for
Moving metal figures and water jets.
Fountain on the former theatre site.
