The term "Pötz" (in High German "Pütz"), like "Born", describes a well, sometimes also a spring, and has also found its way into place names. Here we even have a "saint" (in Rhenish dialect Helje or more often Helije).

On warm summer days, this is the perfect place for a break. Shade-giving trees and clear, cold water. What more could you ask for?!

This place of power is perfect for those who have exhausted themselves during a long hike. There are two benches there, so just sit down and take in the surroundings.
