history

The Winklerbrunnen (source II) at the entrance to the park from Franzensbader Platz was discovered in 1808 during the construction of a country villa, the Beyerbach'schen House. Dr. Beyerbach, the house owner, had the source taken. The fountain was named after the later owners, the Winkler family. The house was demolished in 1910 as part of the park design. The spring outlet was provided with stones in 1924. In 1988 a renovation took place, whereby the old design was retained. The water is a sodium chloride hydrogen carbonate thermal acid.
