"Although the Walloons who settled in Lambrecht in the 16th century quickly integrated economically, they led a culturally and religiously independent existence for a long time and used their own language for generations. Traces of this have also been preserved in the local dialect and in place names." The word "Gradschank" "refers to the former field 'Gradschank,' derived from the French 'grands champs' = large fields. The area was formerly agricultural land." Source (quoted verbatim): Information panel no. 3 of the audio tour "Saladin and the Cloth Makers" (near the community center). "The Gradschank fountain is one of the original 12 fountains in the municipality and also served to supply water to the hospital [located within sight]." Source (quoted verbatim): Information panel no. 4 of the audio tour "Saladin and the Cloth Makers" (at the former municipal hospital)

The pick-up area isn't directly at the fountain, but it's very close, yes.

Always a highlight for fans of steam locomotives and family outings with children when the railway is in operation.

The Lambrecht song was written by schoolteacher H. Kissel, who was also conductor of the “Gesangverein 1846 e.V. Lambrecht” (1905-1919).

Unfortunately, there is no further information available. Only a smaller memorial stone, about 50 meters downhill, from 1930: https://www.komoot.com/de-de/highlight/7260251
