unlike in North America, our hydrants are underground. We have signs nearby informing the firefighters of the location.

We have both here out of ground & under...funny how they are the last thing we think about during day to day life.

This is fascinating Ray! I had no idea there were such things as underground hydrants!

I'm not sure where ours are Ray, I'll have to ask!

Nice find and good photo for the challenge. They're good underground as long as it does not get too snowy and icy which I have experienced in Germany.

Where's the fun of running it over and causing a geyser? 😀
