About

The monument to Paul Fürst is a tribute to the famous confectioner who invented the candy in the golden wrapper, which has become a special symbol of Austria. The giant shimmering sphere, on top of which stands a man in a suit, attracts thousands of tourists, as if promising to treat them to the sweet wonder named "Mozartkugel" - the famous Swiss candy that has become a true brand. Several cozy cafes have nestled near the monument, a large chess board has appeared on the sidewalk, and at the very foot of the monument, benches have sprung up for those tired from wandering through the sights and dreaming of their portion of the Swiss treat melting in their mouth.

Plaza preciosa con una fuente clásica italiana y con otra fuente con escenas mitológicas. Había una instalación temporal de esculturas de cabezas de Jaume Plensa, el artista catalán famoso por sus obras gigantes.

Великолепный фонтан, впечатление что ты в Италии. Расположен на одной из главных площадей, но мы его чуть не прошли. С замком на верху, смотрится особенно впечатляюще
