Fontäne auf der Pfaueninsel

The fountain on Peacock Island went into operation on August 3, 1825. Almost 200 years later to the day, park manager Jan Uhlig explains the complex and varied history of the water supply on Peacock Island. You will learn how important water is for maintaining the park, especially in times of increasing drought, and what challenges and opportunities exist. The tour will also present current water restoration measures on the island, which are important for the beauty of the island and as a habitat for many animals and insects.
