In 1729, the Sauerbrunnen became famous for the physician Christoph Keil. On July 14, 1957, the inauguration of the re-opened well took place. The fountain pavilion is still there and can be seen from afar. The tasty medicinal water is taken from a hand pump. Even today, people come from near and far to bottle bottled water.

the pump is cool. But not a typical sour taste

There have been repeated attempts to use the spring for spa purposes. Around 1728, Dr. Christoph Heinrich Keil, a physician from Wunsiedel, tried to revive the spa operations. This led to a new design for the spring by Margrave Georg Friedrich Karl of Bayreuth, whose initials (GFCMZBC 1728) could be read on the spring's edge.
