About this work

In the picture you can see the willow by the natural monument spring swamp Kesselbronn 5. The natural monument itself is a spring swamp surrounded by an agricultural used area and therefore difficult to see.

Text from an on-site sign:

This spring swamp over a marl layer of the lower freshwater molasses was the only still pouring spring of the wide environment in dry times and thus very important in terms of settlement history (name Kesselbronn). For an annual fee, the Jungingen farmers got if their own springs dried up, the water until they got a water pipe in 1896.

Plants: marsh marigold, swamp forget-me-not, calamus, water mint, water sword lily, small and large cattails.
