The name is a dialect version of a mythical "Hungerbrunn", a "well of famine", denoting a well or fountain, which only carried water in years of famine. This is (or rather, was) a widespread popular belief in Austria. Similar wells, springs or even creeks can be found in many parts of Austria. | The name is a dialect version of a mythical "Hungerbrunn", a "well of famine", denoting a well or fountain, which only carried water in years of famine.
