Gesundbrunnen near Buckautal

The Gesundbrunnen is a spring swamp near Buckau, a district of the Buckautal municipality in the west of the Brandenburg district of Potsdam-Mittelmark in Germany .

According to tradition, the spring is said to have opened at Pentecost on May 23, 1659. Since then, mineral-rich water has come out of the spring pot . According to tradition, the water is said to have a health-promoting effect. Iron hydroxides have deposited on the bottom of the spring, causing a reddish coloration of the underground. In the 21st century, more than 70 liters of water leak out every second. This means that the source is considered to be the most abundant in the state of Brandenburg. It flows into the Buckau .

The source can be reached north of a fish farm via a small path west of the federal highway 107 .
