The Lindborn was located here in the Middle Ages. In the 16th century, the water from the Lindborn and other springs was used to operate a washing facility due to the lack of a washing machine - and this continued into the 20th century.
The stone cross commemorates the death of two maids who, in a fit of jealousy, slaughtered each other with sickles.
Seating on a bench and at the bottom of the pool - be careful, the floor can be slippery.

My tip: sit on the bench, start a journey through time, watch the washerwomen at work and listen to their stories. If you want to stay more in the here and now, you can just refresh yourself.

Pleasant place to linger or take a break with splashing water in the background.
