From German Girls Genealogy (Teresa Steinkamp McMillin & Debra A. Hoffman):
One of the best things about visiting Germany is the many old architectural things you see that are so much older than anything you would find in the United States. One example is the “Amberger Draue” shown in the picture. The three heads date from 1458! This monument was located on the street of the hotel where we stayed, the Hotel Fronfeste located on Fronfestgasse in Amberg. We will devote a separate post to that unique hotel.
The placard below the three heads, roughly translated, states that anyone who strokes the three heads of the citizens of Amberg will remain loyal to the people of Amberg for the rest of their lives and will come back at some point. We are looking forward to returning on a future trip!
