The wayside shrine was originally erected in 1547 to commemorate the Nuremberg patrician sons Christian Pfinzing and Sebastian Schedel, who were shot at this spot by imperial mercenaries. The original was destroyed by US Army tanks during military exercises in 1962. In 2009, a replica made of quartzite was erected at the original location in the Sebalder Reichswald forest – near the intersection of Dormitzer Straße in the Tennenloher Forst forest. The shrine is called "Maulaufreißer" (literally "mouth opener"), presumably because of the distinctive shape of its head, which resembles a gaping mouth.

The fountain stone symbolizes the connection between nature and art in the former military area, which now serves as a nature reserve. Its simple, powerful form blends harmoniously into the surrounding landscape and invites contemplation.

Since 2012, peacock goats, a rare Swiss breed, have been grazing alongside Przewalski's horses in the area around the former firing range "Range 6" of the former US military training area. The aim is to prevent the open sandy areas from becoming overgrown with shrubs – especially by suppressing the late-flowering bird cherry, which the goats particularly enjoy eating 🌿.
