But what exactly is this tufa spring? From a geological perspective, the term "tuff" is actually incorrect. Tuff refers to rock formed from solidified volcanic ash. When the Romans conquered Vorarlberg around 15 BC, they also came to the Bregenzerwald. The unusual rock they found here reminded them of the rocks in their homeland in southern Italy, and they named it after this tufa rock.
