Elisabethbrunnen, Renaissance spring monument in Schröck, Germany.
The Elisabeth Well features a two-story sandstone facade with Doric columns at the entrance and Ionic columns in the upper section.
Landgrave Louis IV of Hesse-Marburg ordered the construction of this spring enclosure in 1596 to replace a demolished medieval chapel.
The Latin inscriptions on the structure praise the surrounding nature and commemorate Saint Elisabeth, who distributed alms at this location.
The water from this spring exceeds drinking water quality limits according to 2014 hydrochemical analyses, making it unsuitable for consumption.
The spring sits along the Elisabeth Path, which forms part of the Hessian Way of St. James pilgrimage route network.
