The fountain was created by the sculptor Helmut Otto Schön in 1975. Most of the people refer to it as “Kugelbrunnen”: spheric fountain.

The “Körtingbrunnen” in the Lister Meile in Hannover. This fountain was created by Gerhard Bünemann and inaugrated in 1976. The most common nickname of this landmark translates into ‘horse head fountain’, although some people see roosters when they look at the figurines.

Instructions:

Focus on the fountain.
Imagine the water is ice-cold or frozen.
Cool off.

The cooling effect can be enhanced by consuming a cold beverage while looking at the picture.
