Stuttgart: Europe's second largest mineral water deposits bubble every day!

Stuttgart, the lively capital of Baden-Württemberg, trumps with an impressive treasure: up to 44 million liters of mineral water bubble from the underground every day, with which the city houses the second largest mineral water in Europe. Only Budapest can come up with a larger reservoir. Stuttgart is known as a true paradise for mineral water, whether bubbling or quiet. This impressive water source is obtained from 19 fountains and has the potential to provide over 22 million liters of mineral water, acidlings and thermal water per day.

But the joy of the bubbling water is clouded by concerns. Critics of the controversial railway project Stuttgart 21 warn that the extensive construction work could harm the sensitive mineral water. The danger is real, since it is estimated that about half of the mineral water flows unused into the Neckar by wild sources. Technical mayor Dirk Thürnau urges to protect the unique water resources while the city is trying to maintain its mineral water deposits. For more information on this topic Visit www.merkur.de .
