In the mood for a spooky story to get you in the spirit? Do you know why it’s called Henkerbrünnli?
For a long time, there had been a well at the lower end of the Bierhübel, which received its current basin in 1830. The fountain’s name comes from the fact that, to the east of its original location, there was a meadow where, in addition to animal carcasses, the bodies of those who had been executed were buried.
