    The Selzerbrunnen (not Selterbrunnen) is a mineral source, from the water with a high sulfur-iron and chloride content. Can you drink, but I do not like it that much ...

      The water of the Selzer fountain comes to light from a 38 meter deep layer of tertiary limestone. It is very hard, ferrous and rich in chloride, a mineral water with low nitrate content. There have been no complaints so far in the annual bacterial investigations.

        If you walk to the end of the street "Am Selzer-Brunnen" in the Nied district of Frankfurt, you will reach the street "Vorm Wald". Not far away, in a clearing in the Niedwald, is the "Selzerbrunnen", which the sculptor Franz Schranz designed in 1939. The fountain is composed of three layers of large blocks of sandstone shaped into a parallelepiped. The broad, round fountain basin can be used as a bench due to its tiered design. Today, a thin jet of water flows from a stone spout into a seepage hole that is covered with a grate. As soon as it is warm enough, with every trip to the playground, which is set up next to the fountain in the shade of the trees, the children cavort around the small Selzer fountain to play in and around the water.
