A legendary place: a legend tells of a battle between the local Celts and Romans. A Roman legionnaire was injured in the eye, who then hit the bushes and came across a spring. The legionnaire cooled his wound. Once, twice, several times. And as if by a miracle, the eye disease was healed. Word of this quickly got around among the legionaries, but also among the local Celts. The water of the spring has therefore been said to have special healing properties for eye diseases for centuries in popular belief.

At this point / I would like to quickly / say something about the source:
To quote the incomparable humorist Heinz Erhardt (1909 - 1979), who was known to a wide audience for his word jokes and "Noch'n poem", with a short quatrain:
"There is certainly much beauty in
on the element, the wet.
Because you can drink the water.
But you can - also leave it."
(H.Erhardt)
