A worthwhile detour, even if you don't want to tread water. Wild orchids were still blooming along the path in mid-September, and the birch avenue through the Schächele nature reserve is truly beautiful.

The town fountain was inaugurated on August 20, 1868, and was initially located next to the town hall, where it had to make way for the modern Gänseliesl fountain in 1970. In 1973, it was re-erected in front of the Protestant Trinity Church. The octagonal fountain is adorned with a neo-Gothic turret. In it stands an old German Landsknecht with top-boots and a floppy hat, armed with a lance and sword.
