The "Auf dem Düvelsdreck" fountain game at the moor bathhouse was put into operation in 1984 for the opening of the moor bathhouse. The area where the sulphur springs of Bad Nenndorf emerge was called "Auf dem Düvelsdreck" in earlier times due to the foul smell. This is why the sculpture bears this name.
