Wasserkuenste, Kassel, Germany



The fountain is located in Mount William Mountain Park in Kassel, Hesse, Germany. It is also the most attractive artificial landscape in this mountain park. The drop of terrain is mainly used to build the artificial waterfall landscape. 


Water dance performance began in 1714 and has a history of 300 years. This is to use the drop of the terrain to make waterfalls, stairs, fountains, etc. with different types. The total length of the waterway is about 1.9 kilometers. It starts at 2:30 p.m. and ends at 3:30 p.m.

Visitors follow the water all the way from the top of the mountain. This is a different experience. You must have a look here.


The statue of Hercules is 8.35 meters high and is located on the base of an octagonal stone house, which is the source of the fountain. When the lake behind Hercules stores about 400 cubic meters of water, the lake water will gradually flow into the 800 multi-level small steps on both sides of Hercules to form an artificial cascade waterfall. Then continue to go down the hillside, successively form the first large waterfall in steinh ö fer, and then form a more turbulent waterfall under the devil's bridge. Then it flows down from a height of 28 meters through an elevated aqueduct imitating ancient Roman architecture, and finally flows into a large fountain pool with William mountain castle as the background, and a fountain up to 52 meters is formed. Each waterfall performance attracts a large number of visitors. People are excited to run up and down with the water and enjoy.


These steps down the slope are not steps for people to walk, but channels for water flow. When the water flows, the first big waterfall of the whole artificial waterfall series will be formed here, and the cave will become a "water curtain cave". Follow the current and come to Schloss wilhelmsh ö he, forming a large fountain on the castle lawn. The energy of this fountain comes entirely from the natural drop from Hercules to William castle.
