The name of the spring goes back to Saint Catherine. According to legend, she was executed on the Rüderner Heide, where she found her final resting place under the Catherine Linden tree.

Somewhat hidden beside a bridge is the Katharinenbrünnele (St. Catherine's Fountain). A bench stands next to it.

A small bronze plaque provides information about St. Catherine, after whom the fountain and the Katharinenlinde (St. Catherine's Linden Tree) above it are named.
