"Diese modern gestaltete Brunnenanlage (eingeweiht 1984) wurde im Gedenken an den von Terroristen ermordeten Oberurseler Bürger und Bankier Jürgen Ponto von der Dresdner Bank AG gestiftet.
Der von dem Hanauer Künstler Claus Bury errichtete Brunnen besteht aus einem Ensemble schlichter, reduziert wirkender Granitformen, auf deren Oberfläche sich das Wasser innerhalb leichter Vertiefungen in entgegengesetzte Richtungen mit unterschiedlichen Geschwindigkeiten bewegt."
