The circular pond was created on an old ore dump and is fed by a tunnel spring. Due to its low pH, the water is not drinkable, but it provides a habitat for rare animals such as fire salamanders and grass snakes.
Local festivals used to take place here, and as early as the 18th century, the spring water was considered to have medicinal properties.
