The Elisa Fountain (Elisenbrunnen) is the symbol of the spa town of Aachen. It was constructed in 1827 according to plans of the architects Cremer and Schinkel. At the time, the Elisa Fountain served as a drinking hall and a promenading hall and still today it is possible to try the healing thermal waters of Aachen from this fountain. Marble plaques remind us of the names of the famous visitors that came to the Aachen spa over the centuries, amongst them Händel and Casanova.At the public hot spring in Aachen. Dance clubs regularly hold public dances for everyone in the rotunda. This inspires break dance kids, who also assemble there frequently. The building is like from a Potemkin village: It has no interior. The doors lead into an other open space.
