The pendulum well
Credit
: G.Salat - CC HCC
Description
In the 18th century, a manorial residence, the seat of a barony, existed in the village on the site of the building now built as a school.The pendulum well near this building is a remnant of the former castle farm. Its operation is simple: it is based on the principle of a lever, supported in its middle on a pivot, and carrying a container at one end and a counterweight at the other. Simply vary the weight of one of the arms to give it a rocking movement.
