The water here at the Eibach graduation tower has been bubbling since it was drilled in 1933. In 1964, the Eibacher spring was recognized as a state medicinal spring.
In order to upgrade the source again, the construction work for the graduation house was started in 2003. In this construction, the population from Eibach did a large part of the work on a voluntary basis. In August 2004, the graduation tower was put into operation.
Due to the special construction of a graduation tower, the air inside the graduation tower is very clean and healthy due to the trickling healing water. You notice that immediately when you take a deep breath in the graduation tower. In order to distribute the trickling water as well as possible, the walls are stuffed with black thorns on which the water can then trickle down (source: outdooractive.com/de/quelle/lahntal/gradierwerk-eibach/10616590/)The real discoverers were the Eibacher sheep. Back then they drank this from the source - and it helped. They still exist there;)
