Every year on Good Friday, the decorated little fountain on the Mainrangen is the destination of the traditional Easter fountain hike of the FGV-Bischofsgrün. Hard-working helpers from the local group always decorate the small water dispenser during Holy Week. The three FGV activists Ludwig Heidenreich, Georg Wendel and Friedl Walter built the fountain in 1932.
