The square was probably named after the former patron saint of Eltville. Before the Eltville swimming pool was built, the "Nikeloosbrünnche" was a meeting place for Eltville's youth, who met here on the surrounding meadows in summer when swimming in the Rhine was still allowed.

St. Nicholas is the patron saint of children, but he is also the patron saint of pilgrims and travelers as well as many professional groups, including sailors, inland waterway sailors and coopers.

A rotating lounger and seating on a plateau by the tree invite you to linger. A play area for children was designed with a large fish and a running rope. A stele points to the project of the RheinMain Regional Park.
