The name of the quarry goes back to the Wittes family, who had porphyry quarried here until 1935. Today it is a small natural paradise, where there is also a small rest area.

In the past, many people would swim here, but now it is privately owned and all bathing facilities have been blocked off. Locals also call it the water quarry because there is another one nearby. If you like quarries, there are the Hohburg Mountains nearby, where there are even more and larger quarries.
