Bodenteich does not have a barrage in the classic sense, such as those found in river dams or waterways. Bodenteich is a town located on a dam (Bad Bodenteich Parksee) fed by the Stederau River. The Stederau widens there to form the Parksee. Explanation: Barrage: Barrages are artificial differences in river elevation created by dams or barriers. They are often used for energy generation or shipping. Bodenteich: Bodenteich is a municipality in Lower Saxony located on a dam (Parksee). The Parksee is fed by the Stederau River. Stederau: The Stederau is a river that widens in Bodenteich to form the Parksee. The Parksee is therefore not a barrage basin in the classic sense, but a natural extension of the river. In summary: Bodenteich is a place at a dam fed by a river and not a barrage in the sense of river dams

The Ratsteich was originally created by damming an arm of the Ilmenau as part of fortification measures. Today, the Ratsteich is a popular tourist destination: there are restaurants here, you can stroll through the park and relax on the benches. The Ratsteich meadow is also a popular place to play. I particularly liked the water fountain.

Oldenstädter See near Uelzen. The quarry lake was created during the construction of the Mittelland Canal and is now ideal for swimming, fishing and water sports. There is a hiking trail around it and opportunities to stop for refreshments (at least in summer).

The bathing water quality of Lake Oldenstadt is regularly examined. The Uelzen Health Department takes samples, which are then examined in a certified laboratory. The results of the investigations are published on the website of the Lower Saxony State Health Authority: www.nlga.niedersachsen.de

A path leads directly along the banks of the Ratsteich under plane trees and has many park benches that invite you to linger and look. The swans and ducks make their rounds here and sometimes lurk for food. Much to the children's delight, you can still feed here because the Ratsteich is not a stagnant body of water, but is traversed by an arm of the Ilmenau. If you follow the riverside path around the lake to the right, you will come to the small lock and the waterfall. With coffee and cake in the outdoor area of the restaurant located here, you can also listen to the sound of the waterfall. The Ratsteich was created by damming an arm of the Ilmenau in 1643. Due to the Thirty Years' War, the defenses were supposed to be strengthened, especially in the area of the Gudestor. Later it served as a fire pond, cattle trough or was used by breweries to cool beer. The adjacent Ratsteichwiese, where a small picnic is often held, used to be flooded regularly - when the winter was still winter - so that a wonderfully large ice surface was created here. Children enjoyed skating here. Source: https://www.hansestadt-uelzen.de/home/uelzen-erleben/aktive-freizeitgestalt/naturgenuss-in-der-stadt/an-der-ilmenau.aspx
