WITCH WELL

Not a lot of people believe in witches. It is understandable, because it is difficult to understand things that we can not explain. There is a great myth in Estonia about witches. And maybe it is not only a myth… We have a proof for you.And so the story begins…

Tuhala’s Witch’s Well starts to boil 100 litres per second only when the current intensity of the water in Tuhala river is at least 5000 litres per second.

It is possible to see that happen from one day up to 3 weeks

The well is 2.4 meters deep and it’s water is a bit brownish

 
 Folk myth says – Witch’s Well starts to boil when Tuhala’s witches are whisking one selves in the well.

 

Tuhala, which was founded 3000 years ago, is located in northern Estonia in Harjumaa. Tuhala’s landscape reserve is mainly known for its “ebullient” Witch’s Well, which is considered to be one of the most unique natural phenomenon in Europe.
