🎨 Design & Symbolism The fountain was designed in 1989 by the renowned Palatinate artist couple Prof. Gernot Rumpf and Barbara Rumpf. It is rich in bronze figures that reflect the history and identity of the village of Hayna.

⛲️ In Hayna, a district of the municipality of Herxheim near Landau in the Palatinate, the village fountain (often also called the tobacco fountain) is a central landmark and popular meeting place.

Holy Cross Church, a Neoclassical plastered building, architect: presumably Friedrich Samuel Schwarze (building inspector in the "Bavarian Rhine District"), 1820, chancel and sacristy added in 1862. War memorial 1914/18, relief tondo, 1920s; to the right of the main entrance of the Catholic Church of the Holy Cross are three panels and a relief made of yellow sandstone. The relief depicts a mounted soldier with a lance fighting a dragon. Stone crucifix at the church, 19th century. At the chancel: Neoclassical tombstones, dated 1803 and 1813.

The small, round chapel with niches, situated at the edge of the forest, was built in 1994 according to the plans of architect Hermann Wiechmann from Hayna, largely through the volunteer efforts of the Marienkapelle e.V. (St. Mary's Chapel Association), and consecrated in 1996. Its striking features include a conical roof with a spire and bell, as well as modern stained-glass windows. An old field chapel on Kapellenweg (Chapel Path) had been demolished in 1960 due to its dilapidated condition. A promise was made to build a new, more attractive chapel elsewhere. The chapel contains a neo-Gothic Pietà and an 18th-century statue of St. John Nepomuk, both painted. Also of note is the photographic documentation of those killed and missing in action during both World Wars.

Hayna has had an independent parish since 1785. A new church was built in 1722 to replace the medieval one, which was then demolished in 1820 to make way for the present church, Holy Cross (Church of the Finding of the True Cross). The altar, sculpted by Leopold Hafner of Passau, depicts a Tree of Life.
