Schwallenbrunnen, Karst spring in Bruchsal, Germany.
The Schwallenbrunnen spring emerges through limestone formations in a 320-meter-long branch of the Saalbach River, creating natural water pools.
The side channel where the spring is located formed during the construction of the Westbahn railway line between 1850 and 1853.
Local folklore includes tales of water spirits and mermaids inhabiting the spring, with stories passed down through generations of Bruchsal residents.
The spring output decreased significantly after 1992, with current water flow measured at approximately ten liters per second in recent assessments.
The name derives from 'Schwall,' referring to the original water movement pattern when the spring reached depths of three meters.
