Polygonal trough with tall sandstone fountain column (copy, original in the Museum of City History), solid with sculptural decoration, 17th century, location changed, linden tree planted in 1872.

The Kloster-Hexen-Hütte (Monastery Witch's Hut) is located next to the Karlsquelle spring at an altitude of 570m. It is worth taking a break here and enjoying the view of the Glaswiesen meadows.

The meadows surrounding the Alpirsbächle stream are known as Glaswiesen (Glass Meadows), and the forest covering the eastern and uppermost valley slopes is called Glaswald (Glass Forest). According to a report, the remains of a former glassworks were uncovered years ago at the Alpirsbächle, near the Karis spring. Students reportedly found glass flux remnants during excavations at the spring, some of which were cemented together with rock. Based on the name and the aforementioned report, it can be assumed that a glassworks existed in the upper Alpirsbächle valley during the Late Middle Ages/16th century, the operation of which required extensive deforestation. The wood from the forests provided the potash needed for glass production. Origin and History of the Name The Glaswald belonged to the monastery from the Middle Ages onward. With the nationalization of church property at the beginning of the 19th century, ownership of the monastery's forests passed to the state. Today, the Glaswald forests belong to the town of Alpirsbach.
