Wishing well
A Wishing Well is a term used in European folklore to describe wells that a person could, at the location of one of these wells, have a wish granted if he or she spoke it. After speaking the wish, a person would generally drop coins in the well, from which the tradition of dropping pennies in ponds comes from.
