The village fountain was reconstructed in 1978 by the castle association themselves. Various fountain festivals took place here in the course of the following years. The financial surpluses of these festivals benefited the further expansion of the castle.
As far as I can remember, I was able to win a 3.5 kg heavy stomach in a guessing competition here...
