The statue is called the Arcus Magic Fountain, designed by sculptor Karl Philipp and unveiled on June 5, 1932. It is located on Eltrein Square, just above the arched riverbed of Als Creek. The statue of the quartet was melted down during World War II, recast using a plaster model in 1981, and unveiled again by city councilors in 1982. A central pedestal rises from the fountain with a circular stone basin, on which a little angel stands. Surrounding the pedestal are four bronze seated figures of musicians: John Schrammer, Paul Fibrich, Alfred Randolph, and Willie Strommel.
