Türelüre-Lißje, Bronze fountain in Aachen, Germany

The Türelüre-Lißje fountain features a central bronze statue of a girl surrounded by multiple figures of mischievous boys on a granite bowl pedestal.

The fountain's name originates from the French occupation period of 1794-1814, when a nearby mill's sound was described as 'la même turelure'.

A traditional folk song about Türelüre-Lißje from Klappergasse has circulated through generations of Aachen residents since the nineteenth century.

Located at the entrance of Klappergasse, the fountain draws water from the Pau stream and stands on a red brick base accessible to pedestrians.

Sculptor Hubert Löneke created this monument in 1967, depicting a local tale about a girl prevented from reaching a toilet by teasing boys.
