Can we drink the water from the drinking fountain in Nimrod's Fortress?
We went to see the Nimrod Fortress yesterday, and we were curious about the drinking fountain and wanted to taste the water. We didn't, though, because we worried that we might get into trouble or that the water may not be good to drink. So, I thought I'd ask here and see if anyone knows if we can drink it. If so, we might just go back for fun.

The ancient drinking fountain at Nimrod Fortress was last renovated in 1240AD. Rainwater collected in the nearby cistern once flowed from the fountain. Although water might still flow through the fountain it is not safe to drink.
