Contrary to the common name, this spring is not the real Alto spring. This lies behind the alto altar in the monastery church and is set in a fountain in the courtyard of the monastery.

The fountain commemorates Saint Alto, a wandering monk from the 8th century. According to legend, he is said to have founded the monastery of Altomünster. During construction, it is said that there was a lack of water. The monk rammed his staff into the ground and clear spring water spurted out.....
The source is in the Altowald.
