In the past, donors used to dye their fabrics in the stream. Today this is too dangerous, because a crocodile is lurking in the water. Luckily, it's only stone. But it is quite impressive against the floods. A real eye-catcher. Also worth seeing the Kinderpäärchen, which water should fill in the pitcher.

One should take the time for this crocodile and really marvel at it.

I also take a look at the crocodile every time I visit Freiburg: Sometimes it swims completely in the water and you can only see the head. Another time it almost swims in the dry, depending on the water level ...!
It is definitely worth a visit 👍
