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.
