    Nice water tower at the beginning of Eichstetten with a small rest area

    The five-arch bridge over the Dreisam, built in 1556, is a landmark of Eichstetten.
    The water tower was built next to the bridge in 1929 to pump water from the Dreisam into a system of irrigation ditches 250m away. This system was used to irrigate 125 hectares of agricultural land during dry periods.

    when you approach Eichstetten at the entrance to the town, at the bridge by the old water tower, the street suddenly narrows to half its width, which makes the place all the more strange. Although it is certainly to the annoyance of some motorists, there is something (at least striking) to come by here. The following place definitely has something special about it!
