The Wasserkunst (water art) Gotha is a system completed in 1895 for the irrigation of wells and fountains as well as for the local water supply and at the same time a sight in the historic old town of Gothas.
The water flows from the fountain at Friedrich-Jacobs-Straße in the direction of NNW over three levels with a length of about 72 m. The fountain is located at the end of the street. The water falls via a waterfall to the next level with several identical ponds at different heights. The water is then led under a short cul-de-sac to the lower part. Here a commemorative plaque from 1869 commemorates the 500th anniversary of the Leinawasser pipeline to Gotha.
