The Town Hall and Marketplace, Gengenbach, Germany

The main square is the center of the old town, the meeting point of the three main streets. The shape is rather triangular than square. It does not have an official name but can be described as Marketplace. Here is where the weekly farmers markets, the Christmas market and about all other events take place. Each of the three streets leads towards a gate tower. The 16th century Röhrenbrunnen (fountain) marks the middle of the square. The column is crowned with the statue of a knight in armour, holding a shield with the imperial eagle.
