The fountain and the '3 Steinmänner' (3 stone men) how the three rocks are called, have been placed here in 2010 by plans of Mathias Wiesenmayer. All the rocks represent local kind of rocks.
The left stone man is made of limestone. The middle stone man is made of flysch stone and the right one is made of another kind of limestone (Helvetikum, Schrattenkalk).
