Description
The wandering Benedictine monk from the monastery of Disentis, Father Placidus A. Spescha (1752 - 1833), mentioned the place in his description of the Tavetschertal as follows: «This 200 step wide and 400 step long lake is the basin from which the front Rhine originates. It is a beautiful area and therefore worthy to be the original source of such a river»
