The fountain comes from the sculptor Walter Graser. The fountain was inaugurated in July 1983.
The square basin is bordered by a low stone wall. The foundation of the fountain is covered with metal plates. The lower half of an oversized pentagonal waffle iron made of metal lies diagonally on it. One of the five triangular fields is tilted so that it is almost vertical. The water shoots out of the 30 peaks.
The name of the fountain goes back to a joke for the villagers.
Because the people of Mühlbach were often jokingly called “waffles”, probably because of their fondness for “Grumbeerwaffele”. The name suggested itself because it is common in the village. The fair is called "Waffelekerb" and the tip of the Kerwe bouquet is decorated with a waffle.
The small mill wheel is reminiscent of the mill that gave the place its name.
