    Hiking

    The fountain was cast in 2010 by the Lower Bavarian sculptor Joseph Michael Neustifter in light bronze (just under a ton). It is related to the basilica and the monastery complex and shows scenes from the life of the Niederaltaich monks, hermits, peace mediators and missionaries St. Gunther as well as rich Christian symbolism.

    At this point / I would like to quickly / say something about the source
    (whereby it corresponds to the art of poetry / if this 'source' is a 'well'):
    To quote the incomparable humorist Heinz Erhardt (1909 - 1979), who was known to a wide audience for his word jokes and "Noch'n poem", with a short quatrain:
    "There is certainly much beauty in
    on the element, the wet.
    Because you can drink the water.
    But you can - also leave it."
    (H.Erhardt)
