    This fountain was dedicated in 1894 to the forester Benedict Candidus, who lived until 1872 in the nearby forester's house (Ritterstein 116 "R.F. Wittgenberg").

      A very quiet place with benches and a table. The water splashes evenly from the well, which takes its name from Benedikt Candidus, the last forester of the forestry house Wittgenberg, which was located nearby. The fountain dates from 1894.

        Nice relaxed place. The well water was unfortunately rather cloudy during our visit.
