City installs unique water fountains due to tragic circumstances: provision for homeless population's hydration needs.
Quenching Your Summer Thirst in Hamburg
Feeling parched during those hot summer days? Hamburg's got your back! With 54 public water dispensers scattered throughout the city, you'll never go thirsty. Ten of these are managed by Hamburg Wasser, equipped with a unique design specially tailored for the city. But, there's a bittersweet story behind these refreshing sources.
You see, the city should have all its water fountains operational by now, especially those located in and around the Alster, the city park, and the landing stages. But thanks to a wave of vandalism, Hamburg's citizens will have to wait a few extra weeks before they can quench their thirst at those sites. The blue drinking water fountains have been so devastated that they require new, sturdy models for replacement.
