    Max Kössler - long-time sculptor and, among other things, Carver of Krampus masks created several bronze figures, which were installed in the spa gardens. It is about the harp player near the meditation park, the deer, which was installed in the spa gardens in 2000, reminiscent of the legend of the discovery of the warm springs, and the sculpture Dr. Friedrich Werner. The bronze figures on the large square near the Alpentherme and the congress center - the boy and the flute player - are also his works.

      Today's (until 1916) spa park shows some expansions. An additional passage over the pond was created and several (painted) stones and bronze figures were placed. There was also the meditation garden (built in 1999, planning by G. and L.-Arch. H. Kunrath) below today's Alpine Arena and 2 new fountain systems after the old fountain system with the watercourse to the pond was removed. At the edge of the water basin, in the middle of which is a fountain bowl with a small, rotating water fountain, was the sculpture (sculptor Max Kössler) of the long-time spa guest Dr. Friedrich Werner from Germany, who supported the construction of the meditation park and the design of the spa park with generous donations. The painted stones in the center of the spa park are reminiscent of the Millenium class reunion for the 1949/50 class, which took place on May 27, 2000.

        The sculptures are in the Kurpark.
