Aachen is decorated by numerous fountains.

Aachen - the city of water. Immerse yourself in the fascinating water culture of the imperial city and marvel at the stories that hide behind the rippling. Leave the cathedral and town hall behind you on this Guided Tour and go to the footsteps of the "blue gold" in the old town this time. Find out why so many fountains shape the cityscape and, like them, almost all of them - from the Karlsbrunnen to the door element to the column of Mary - are fed with water from the Paubach. Every fountain tells its own story, sometimes of course legends and legends. Find out on this tour with which tricks the Aacheners saved their fountains during the war and discovered why Charlemagne is on the market on a "pea soup bowl", which is why the doll fountain not only invites you to play and, like Aachen, became a renowned seaside resort in the 17th century.
