The water supply of Bree consisted of wells. From 1760 pumps were installed, and in 1938 the waterwoks came.
The Wandelfontein, inspired by the fact that there was a well on the Vrijthof from 1532, which in the 18th century was replaced by a pump, which disappeared again.

It is a gift to the town of Bree by the carnivals association.
