Holy Well or Sacred Spring in Brandenburg, Berlin
The Gesundbrunnen holy well was used by the Prussian king Friedrich I in 1760 as a spa. It was probably used as a holy well in ancient times. Later in the 19th century the well was forgotten. In 2008 a man found the well again in a cellar of a building near S-Bahnhof Gesundbrunnen in Berlin.
