An artesian well is a fountain in a depression below the groundwater level, where water is under pressure. This hydraulic potential is so high that the water rises by itself, ie without pumps, to the surface of the earth or higher.

A nice opportunity for a rest. On warm days, however, there are many visitors.

Very nice fountain in the middle of nature.
Invites you to rest in warm weather, brave ones can cool their glowing feet.
Came unexpectedly on our way and was certainly one of the most beautiful highlights.
