      Until well into the 1950s, Kaltenbroich was not connected to the public water supply. Drinking and service water was supplied by this spring. The people of Kaltenbroich brought the water for people and cattle home in buckets. This is also where the women washed their laundry. The space on the other side was used to dry and bleach the white linen cooked with "schwazzer Seef".
