    Since I come from the Itzgrund and so far I actually didn't know where exactly the Itz originates (and also ended up here by chance), I mark the place Stelzen ;-)

      The Itz spring was once a cult site of the goddess Idisa, later a place of pilgrimage. It is also said to be a healing spring. According to legend, sick people left their crutches and stilts there, hence the place's name.
