Schwefelquelle Östringen, Natural sulfur spring in Östringen, Germany
Located in the Krummbach forest, this spring releases cold mineral water containing sodium bicarbonate and hydrogen sulfide at an elevation of 165 meters.
The well construction in 1960 marked an attempt to develop Östringen into a spa town, following the success of neighboring thermal springs.
The circular platform fountain design in the forest stands as an example of mid-20th century German natural water source architecture.
Visitors can reach the spring by following a 400-meter forest path starting from the Am Fischbach parking area through Krummbach forest.
Unlike nearby Bad Schönborn and Bad Mingolsheim thermal springs exceeding 40°C, this source maintains cold water temperature throughout the year.
