description: "The supply of good drinking water was of great importance for the infrastructure of a town. As early as 1546, a pipeline led from Bornsberg to the various \"Kümpen\" (well basins) in the town. Significant parts of the buildings mentioned, in particular the ashlar building decoration, were made from the high-quality Osning sandstone, which came from quarries near the town. This material, which is typical of the area, is a characteristic feature of the townscape and also characterizes other buildings and facilities."

The Pfeifenkumpbrunnen is the historic water reservoir of the town of Horn.

 The supply of good drinking water was of great importance for the infrastructure of a town. As early as 1546, a pipeline led from Bornsberg to the various "Kümpen" (well basins) in the town. Significant parts of the buildings mentioned, in particular the ashlar building decoration, were made from the high-quality Osning sandstone, which came from quarries near the town. This material, which is typical of the area, is a characteristic feature of the townscape and also characterizes other buildings and facilities.
