The fountain has a round basin and stands on a stepped base. The renewed statue of St. John of Nepomuk stands on the fountain. The sandstone fountain dates from 1920. It was probably made in place of a predecessor from the 18th century.
The figure from 1870 itself was destroyed or damaged in 1939 and recreated by Heinrich Söller in 1946.
