    Tips

    In 1928 it was found that this spring had the highest radium content of all Zeller waters. In the 1920s, however, the harmful effects of radium were also recognized. Personally, I will certainly not drink this water. Radiation remains radiation!

      Radium spring

      In 1928, the geologist and chemist Konrad Goldbach discovered that this spring near Zell am Harmersbach had the highest radium content in the entire area. The water was initially believed to have healing properties. Drinking cures were often used to treat rheumatic complaints and gout.

      Today, it is pointed out that the water from this spring is not suitable for drinking!
