Meestrechter Geis
At the end of Stockstraat can be seen a statue (by Mari Andriessen, 1961) of the "Meestrechter Geis", a character from Loe Maas's operetta "Four Maastrichters on their Way to the Moon" (1955) who expresses the cheerful, easygoing way of the hospitable people of Maastricht.
Op de Thermen
Just to the west of Stockstraat is a small square, Op de Thermen, with colored lines marking the position of the Roman baths which were excavated here.
