    I find "ROSTFREIE ADLER" a bit disrespectful as a name for the sculpture that closes the fountain of the Karl-Theodor-Quelle.
    I could well imagine that the artist who created the eagle with the snake will not be happy with this name either.
    Since there is only one eagle here and not several, "ROSTFREIE" is wrong because it is plural.
    Perhaps the creator of the HL can bring himself to reconsider the name and change it if necessary.

      Oh, the name was changed so fast, that's great, thank you!

        One of three healing springs is covered by a statue depicting an eagle fighting with a snake.
