There is a mystic spring on the Laiuse drumlin. The spring was used as a sacrificial spring during the second millennium and considered a holy place by ancient Estonians. The folk believed that the spring is a source of strength, gives rain and drought, causes dearth or ensures a good harvest. They believed the water in the spring heals eyes and many other ailments. That is why the people respected their spring and made sacrifices to it.

There is a nice boardwalk to the spring and a bench where you can admire the spring and think beautiful thoughts. Why not wash your face with spring water to have perfect vision and clear complexion.
