September 22, 2026, Fountain with Wicker Sculptures, Lichtenfels

In the middle of Lichtenfels, the German basket-making town, this fountain commemorates the long tradition of basketry in the town. The striking wicker figures make the fountain a small, but worthwhile, eye-catcher in the city center. Lichtenfels is closely associated with the weaving of baskets and other products from natural materials. To this day, this craft shapes the town's image and identity. A small highlight for a city tour – and a nice opportunity to discover a piece of Lichtenfels' history and craft tradition along the way.

The reservoir is also very beautiful, but the bridge also comes out well.

Cycle route signs are located at intersections and indicate the direction and distance to your destination. These signs are further enhanced with small pictograms of themed routes. It's helpful to know where to go when you don't have a navigation system.
