There is a faun playing flute and a water nymph. They were placed in a vertical composition and in the original concept there was an artificial waterfall connecting the two elements. They were created in ceramic (actually the largest ceramic art in Central Europe) by the sculptors Olga Hudecková and Miroslav Hudecek. Finished in 1984.
