Everything has to start small, and that also applies to the Fulda and its remarkable journey to the confluence with the Werra, which comes from Thuringia, and then flows from Hannoversch Münden as the Weser towards Bremen and the North Sea.

The Fulda is the river with the greatest flow length within Hesse. The source should not be missed when hiking in the area

That this meager trickle should become a stately river? Wikipedia says that this is not the real Fulda spring: "This is much higher, almost below the summit. When the construction began over 80 years ago, it was enclosed and used to supply the buildings with drinking water The overflow was led by a pipeline to the point that is now given as the Fulda spring.
