Hiking

The old fountain belongs to the former village of Weidenstetten, which has probably disappeared since the Thirty Years' War

Hiking

The fountain probably comes from the former place Weidstetten (Weichstetten, Weidstette). First mention in the letter from the Wiesensteig monastery from the year 861. It is not known when the place left. It is assumed, however, in the 30 Years War (1618-1648) or earlier.
