The Frau Rauscher Brunnen monument

September 27th, 2006

One monument that visitors should probably be warned about before they take to the streets of Frankfurt is the unusual Frau Rauscher Brunnen. Located to the south of the River Main, the statue features a large, very angry-looking Hausfrau, who occasionally spurts water across the footpath, soaking passers-by. Designed in honour of an old Frankfurt drinking song, the Frau Rauscher Brunnen monument occasionally causes consternation amongst unwitting tourists and daydreaming Frankfurters. You have been warned!
