The rump of the elephant made it famous. Which Leverkusen fountain can claim to be mentioned on one page for the Arminia Bielefeld football club, along with its history? In the book “111 places you must have seen in Leverkusen” the elephant fountain on Havensteinstrasse appears of course. But which fountain statue can claim to have made two U-turns? Abstract: The hind part of Adolf Gaul’s bronze animal, which was erected in 1921, protruded in the direction of Rathenaustraße, the trunk pointed towards Colony III. When the Nazis moved into the Doktorsburg, it didn’t go down well, buttocks in view, they had the statue rotated. Only in 2007 was the bronze turned back to its original position.
