With the grotto, a spring that rises here was captured. There are legends surrounding the grotto relating to the desire for children. The cupid figure above the grotto is a copy of the original from the 19th century.

Here in Herrnsheimer Park is a small spring grotto below the Cupid figure. A small path leads into it.

The statue is currently in hibernation.
When the castle park was renovated under Johann Michael Zeyher, the area around the spring that feeds the castle pond was expanded into a grotto. Above it is a pedestal with a Cupid figure. The design was completed by the early 1820s.
