Leave 70,000 thalers behind. This has been used for charitable purposes.
The Freiberg architect Eduard Heuchler had the idea of honoring Horn with a memorial as part of the redesign of the ramparts.

The area is a little unkempt and somehow doesn't fit in with the rest of the city

The name Hornbrunnen is somewhat confusing to today's observer. In its heyday, the monument to a former mayor and generous patron of the city was actually a fountain. After being demolished in 1977, the monument has only been partially rebuilt since 2017.
