"Fountain of the Joy of Life aka The Porn Fountain" Top 5 Page for this destination Rostock Things to Do Tip by Mariajoy

The Fountain of the Joy of Life is situated in University Square. It is a DDR monument to Rostock's rebirth after WWII. My guide told me that the East Germans have no body shyness - (hence the vast amount of nudist beaches on the Baltic coast) - and that this fountain with it's nude statues happily cavorting in the water, is known locally as "The Porn Fountain". In the summer, children can play in the fountain, but it isn't on in the winter. I guess it's even too chilly for those hardy Rostockers.
