The Aubach spring, or also called Auquelle, is located in a narrow valley, about one kilometer south of Menchau, below Ordenbrunn. The karst spring is enclosed in a round shaft made of sandstone blocks from 1770, which is designated as an architectural monument. The bottom of this spring is covered with sand, which is easily swirled upwards by the water pressure. There are stone benches around the spring.

The setting almost looks like a tower foundation because it is so large. The bottom is deep, you can't get in or down to the water. The stone benches around it are overgrown with moss.

I was warned by a local about a wolf that had settled here.
