    there is an old well here - the 15 meter deep farmer's soot. 100 years ago this pump was still in use.

    Before Burg had a modern central water supply, public wells like the Bauern-Soot (Farmers' Well) were vital for the population, especially for the farmers (hence the name "Bauern-Soot").

    1839/40: A pump was installed. Its use was regulated: Each person received a key to open the lock on the pump handle.

    1910: A new wooden pump handle was acquired.

    1922: This was replaced by an iron pump.
