      The family fountain dates back to 1556. The coats of arms of the three noble families of Gemmingen, Dalberg and Frankenstein are attached to it. These three noble houses were once Burgmannen at Landskron Castle and inhabited the surrounding estates.

          The so-called Gender Fountain, also known as the Knight's Fountain, is a three-sided Renaissance fountain and dates back to 1546. Each of the three sides is decorated with a coat of arms of the most important surrounding families:

          - The coat of arms of the Chamberlains of Worms, called von Dalberg
          - The coat of arms of the Barons of Gemmingen
          - The family coat of arms of the Lords of Franckenstein

            At this point / I would like to quickly / say something about the source
            (whereby it corresponds to the art of poetry / if this 'source' is a 'well'):
            To quote the incomparable humorist Heinz Erhardt (1909 - 1979), who was known to a wide audience for his word jokes and "Noch'n poem", with a short quatrain:
            "There is certainly much beauty in
            on the element, the wet.
            Because you can drink the water.
            But you can - also leave it."
            (H.Erhardt)
