무자비한‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 호수

The tree-lined spring, at 17 meters wide, is only about half as wide as the Kainspring, but at 23.5 meters deep, almost twice as deep. The Melchiorbrunnen (Melchior Spring) discharges 20 liters per second. The spring's bed consists of meter-deep limestone mud, through which the karst water pushes, causing it to bubble. https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melchiorbrunnen

Buy your entry chip during the day and enjoy it all in the evening

Ideal for evening strolls. Nice for unwinding.

A grassy path with beautiful views of the lake leads along the Sacrificial Moor. With a little luck, you can spot swans, great crested grebes, coots, and, along the shoreline, numerous dragonflies.

Since 1947, peat has been mined in the Rieth between Oberdorla and Niederdorla. Animal bones and shards have been found time and again. However, when a bison skull, a wooden bowl and parts of a wooden idol were discovered in 1957, the staff of the Museum of Prehistory and Early History in Weimar were informed. It soon became clear that these were not the remains of a settlement, but an ancient cult site.

The spring area west of Oberdorla is of great importance for the region's drinking water supply. These deep sinkhole springs are of particular interest to karst and cave researchers. VÖLKER (1983) reported: "The bottom of the Melchiorbrunnen consists of meter-high lime mud, the depth of which could not be determined. The water pushes through the lime mud and causes it to bubble. At the bottom there are tree remains that are completely encrusted with lime."

Kain jump - legend Two boys were playing with marbles west of the village of Oberdorla. One of them was called Kain. While playing, he threw one of his marbles too far, so that it fell into a hole in the ground between some large stones in a small hollow. Kain tried to move the stones aside to get his marble out. When he finally managed to loosen one of the large chunks, a strong jet of water shot towards him, filling the entire hollow. The other boy called out to him in alarm: "Kain jump - otherwise you will drown!" This incident thus gave the sinkhole spring its name.

If you have the time, definitely take a look.
