Operation resumed at Fontaine field on Schloßstraße

In the heart of Bensberg, Germany, a new attraction has been unveiled, adding a splash of excitement to the city centre. The Fountain Field, located in front of the Castle Gallery, is a key part of the Integrated Action Concept (IAC) Bensberg, a comprehensive plan for the redevelopment of Castle Street into a pedestrian zone.

The Fountain Field is a spectacle to behold, with eleven LED-lit nozzles embedded in the ground, creating a mesmerising display of water shows. The fountain's height can be adjusted for various multi-level displays, offering visitors a dynamic and engaging experience.

The fountain's operation is made possible by an underground pump chamber with a capacity of up to 8,000 liters, ensuring a steady supply of water. This chamber is frost-proof, ensuring the fountain can operate year-round. The nozzles operate with up to 2.5 bar pressure, providing the necessary force for the impressive water displays.

The construction of the Fountain Field was a complex, multi-month process, but the result is a stunning addition to Bensberg's landscape. The fountain is expected to enhance the experience for families in the city, providing a refreshing and cooling respite during hot summer days.

The Fountain Field serves as an additional attraction point on Castle Street, contributing to its transformation into a vibrant pedestrian zone. Ragnar Migenda, the First Deputy Mayor, spoke at the fountain's inauguration, highlighting its significance in the ongoing redevelopment of Bensberg.

For those interested in learning more about the Fountain Field and the IAC Bensberg, including the renovation of Castle Street, official publications or websites from Bensberg local authorities or the organization managing the IAC Bensberg directly are recommended.

As we continue to explore and enjoy the new Fountain Field, it's clear that this development marks another important milestone in the transformation of Bensberg.

The Fountain Field, with its mesmerizing water shows and dynamic displays, adds a touch of outdoor-living excitement to Bensberg, enhancing the city's home-and-garden charm. The redevelopment plan, including the Fountain Field, emphasizes sustainable-living principles by creating a pedestrian zone and optimizing water usage for the fountain.
