The Zytglogge in Berne is the UNESCO monument you can urinate on.

Rather amazingly, set into its outside wall on the street is a pissoir. The "Herren WC" sign is a little misleading, as there is neither WATER nor a CLOSET."

How wonderful!

This is actually misinformation and misleading. The sign says "WC 'a man' pissoir". like on the picture.

My link was for the illustration.

I don't know what "Herren" means, but WC stands for water closet. It sounds to me like there isn't any running water or stalls.
