Holy Well or Sacred Springs in Bavaria
There are three Kelsbach wells, the most interesting is the one in Ettling. In the Nibelungenlied Legend (The Song of the Nibelungs), Hagen von Tronje (one of the heroes) meets the water women (Necks) who augur him the future. The well was probably a Celtic sanctuary.
