EN: The draw well stands in the outer bailey of Burgdorf Castle. It is surrounded by a round wall and has a diameter of about three meters. In the past it was probably protected by a roof, today the shaft is covered by a metal grid. According to a sign at the well, it has a depth of 45 meters. It probably still carries water, but it is too dark in the shaft to see it.

DE: Der Ziehbrunnen steht im vorderen Hof von Schloss Burgdorf. Er ist von einer runden Mauer umgeben und hat einen Durchmesser von rund drei Metern. Früher war er wohl mit einem Dach geschützt, heute ist der Schacht von einem Metallgitter bedeckt. Nach einem Schild am Brunnen ist er 45 Meter tief. Er könnte noch Wasser führen, es ist im Schacht aber zu dunkel, um es zu erkennen.
