Tips

In 2006, the little white woman made of alabaster, which was created by the sculptor Eva-Gesine Wegner, set up at the Weissfraubrunnen. In the following year the sculpture was stolen, but in 2008 it has reappeared and has been in this place ever since. The figure rests on a sandstone base, which lies in the middle of a Moosteppichs with many watercourses.

The sculptor Eva-Gesine Wegner draws attention to the special resource of water by setting so-called "stones of thanks". In the source area "Weissfraubrunnen" near Güttersbach, this little white woman is made of alabaster.
To the legend of the white woman:
"Here, where we live, Celts, Romans, and Teutons settled in the years before and after the turn of the century, and in all three cultures a three-figure goddess was known and was revered as a virgin, a mature wife and mother, and a wise old woman Woman, the white spring goddess, was responsible for springs and streams, where in the spring the water gushes vigorously and brings everything back to life.It may well be that in the spring women came to cleansing rituals to meet the goddess for the gift from the To thank Earth. "
