Das Wassermuseum in Zell – Informationspunkt zur Zeller Ortsgeschichte (The water museum in Zell – information point on Zell's local history)
The small water museum is an information centre on Zell's local history and is dedicated entirely to the elixir of life, water. The museum is housed in the basement of the Rose inn. There, the so-called Obere or Rosenwirtsbrunnen was uncovered, which still carries water from the Zeller Berg to the Main. This historic well provides a view of a pre-modern, now barely recognisable local well network, from which the valuable spring water from the Zeller Berg was obtained for homes, farms and businesses until households were connected to a centralised and now highly technical drinking water supply network operated by Würzburg's public utility company. The museum focuses on the importance of the local abundance of water for industrialisation in the 19th century and also deals with the significance of groundwater protection today.
