The stream springs from beneath the bridge. The water is clear, but the stream bed is a rusty brown color. The stream soon splits. Very interesting. An information board explains the iron spring. It was only created by a bomb hit in the Second World War.

Very interesting that the water is rust-brown. That's because of the high iron content. 👍🏼
