Every week-end they try to fiond out whether rumours that there are Nazi archives and German ammunition hidden in the well are true. There are still many Nazi archives hidden in Czechoslovakia and may be that the deepest well of Central Europe will reveal documents like those found some years ago in the Black and Devil's lakes in the Bohemian Forest. The well is 160 metres deep
