Sankt Alban-Tal

More Information
Location: St. Alban-Tal
Artist: Urs Bargetzi
In operation since: 1865
listed: no
History / Description: The fountain is made ​​of stone in the middle of an idyllic place in the St. Alban-Tal. The well is four-sided pillar, and has beveled edges. The top is a "final drive" provided, of which it has small pointed arches on all sides. The Schindelhof Fountain is a beautiful spot: On "his" own little spot in the middle it has trees that stand around him protectively, and about old houses. These elements give the whole place a picture of what it was here, maybe even around 1865.
Special: Not far from here is the Paper Mill, which among other things allows one to make their own paper.
