This spectacle takes place every year with the newly minted doctors getting to kiss Liesel, and you should definitely make time for it. Find an appointment online.

The symbol of Göttingen. Also to be found in the Monopoly Germany version as Schlossallee. Doctoral students kiss the goose bug and decorate the fountain with flowers. For a long time there was a ban on kissing, but this has been lifted since 2001.
