    The fountain is called the Samaritan Fountain.
    It was created in 1920 in honor of the Samaritans who donated aid during World War I. The Berlin sculptor Prof. Hugo Kaufmann made the essay in 1915 (side date).

    The Samaritan Fountain was created in honor of the Samaritans who provided aid during the First World War. The fountain was donated in 1920 by a Bad Homburg family who wanted to remember these helpers. The Berlin sculptor Prof. Hugo Kaufmann gave the memorial its design. A warrior in Roman uniform, lying on the ground, offers a drink to a man dressed in a toga.
