    Since April 2024, you can immortalize stamp 15 in the new HWN-Huy-Fallstein booklet at the Piepenpal spring in Neinstedt. The name "Pfeifen-Pfahl" comes from Low German and describes an upside-down tobacco pipe. The clear spring water is of drinking quality and you can fill up your empty water bottle here along the way. It is one of numerous springs in the Huy area that you can hike to on the approximately 35 km long spring (circular) trail.

      The source of the spring, which has been used by the inhabitants since ancient times, used to be above its current location. It was only after it was moved further into the village towards the end of the 19th century and a wall was built around it and an outlet in the form of a cast-iron pump housing was added that the spring took on its current appearance. The name refers to the appearance of an upside-down (tobacco) pipe on a pole, but we have to resort to the Low German language that was spoken everywhere by the rural population at the time:
      Piep = pipe Pahl = pole, mast
      Piepenpahl = pipe pole, pole pipe
