Europaplatz
Aachen
If you are driving into the center of Aachen from Cologne, Belgium or the Netherlands, the fountain on Europaplatz awaits you with its large fountain. It is surrounded by the flags of the EU and its 28 member states.
The fountain itself dates back to 1958 and conceals the worm beneath it. If it rises too high, the water is pumped into the fountain. If it storms too much, a small windmill transmits the wind force to the technology and the pumping force of the fountain becomes shallower.
