The enclosure of the well and a small pond, which is fed by it, are remains from medieval times. From far away sick people came to find relief through the healing waters of the well. And in fact, the water is special, as it is polarized positively clockwise. Even today there are people who believe in the therapeutic effects of the water and like to take it home.
