Alnarpsströmmen

Alnarpsströmmen is a subterranean aquifer under the Swedish province of Scania.

It has been used for wells since at least the 18th century and as a fresh water source for Malmö since 1901.

[1] Due to its artesian character, wells occasionally turn to fountains.

About 400 litres of groundwater naturally flow into Öresund from Alnarpsströmmen every second through quaternary moraine.

[2] The width of the aquifer is around 20 km, and the flow of the water is just 10 metres a year.
