Let’s take a step back and walk to this seemingly simple, yet fascinating structure. We’re standing in front of the Wasserzeichen, an inscription illuminated with a soft glow. The words are crafted from plastic and shine with a unique light, especially at night. These words are more than just letters; they are a testament to the rich history of Bergisch Gladbach. Each word holds a story, a memory, a moment in time. The inscription contains 180 words that tell the story of a city, its people, its struggles, its triumphs. The words stand as a silent sentinel, forever marking the passing of time, reminding us that even in the midst of change, there is always a legacy to be cherished.
