The "Fools' Fountain" depicts the figures of the Bad Säckingen carnival: the "Römer," the "Siechenmännle," the "Maisenhardt Jeggele," and the "Hüüler." The fountain was made of Jurassic limestone in 1972 by Rheinfelden sculptor Leonard Eder.

At this point / I would like to quickly / say something about the source:
And to quote the incomparable humorist Heinz Erhardt (1909 - 1979), who was known to a wide audience for his wit and "Another poem", with a short four-line verse:
"There is certainly a lot of beauty in the element, the wet.
Because you can drink the water.
But you can also leave it."
(H.Erhardt)
