Lahn spring

The Lahn spring is a natural water source in North Rhine-Westphalia where the Lahn River begins. Water emerges from the ground and flows downward, becoming the start of a river system that travels across the landscape.

The spring served as a water source for settlements in earlier times and shaped the development of the area. The river flowing from here became central to how the region grew and connected distant communities.

The spring holds meaning for locals as the birthplace of a river that shaped their region over centuries. People visit this spot to feel connected to the natural source that flows through their communities.

The site is accessible by marked hiking paths, with parking available nearby for visitors. Information boards help explain the spring and its natural features to those who visit.

The water flowing from this spring is clean enough to drink directly, which is rare for public natural water sources in the region. Visitors can taste fresh spring water straight from the ground without any treatment or processing.
