Hirschquelle

The Hirschquelle is a spring in Bad Teinach-Zavelstein in the northern Black Forest. A healing water is extracted from it, which is sold by Mineralbrunnen Überkingen-Teinach AG under the brand name Hirschquelle . According to the manufacturer, it is suitable "to stimulate digestion, to promote the function of the stomach and intestines."

history

The Hirschquelle was drilled in 1841 on the so-called Hirschwiese. The depth of the well was 88 feet and 2 inches. The water, which had a temperature of 7.8 degrees R, was slightly acidic.

Originally there was an iron-containing weakly alkaline source in Teinach, which was called the ink source, and three alkaline acid sources, namely the source in the roof box, the source in the center box and the source in the wall box. These sources were not sufficient for the growing spa operation, so a drilling program was started. The arbor spring was drilled in February 1839 and the meadow spring in May. In 1841 the creek source was drilled.

In the 1970s, the Hirschquelle was opened up with further boreholes. These holes are referred to as Hirschquelle II and Hirschquelle III .
