Köhlersgrund Pond

Highlight • Lake

The Köhlersgrund in Leinefelde was once a local recreation area! The turning point came, and the Köhlersgrund disappeared. That's going to change. Leinefelde's mayor, Patrick Westphalen, is committed to the development of the Köhlersgrund and is actively driving its implementation.

After many years of neglect, the pond in Köhlersgrund has also been redesigned. It lies beautifully nestled among tall trees right next to the clearing. In the middle of the pond, there is now a duck house in the traditional half-timbered style. The setting sun is reflected in the water.

The pond in the Köhlersgrund, redesigned after many years, presents itself between tall trees with a half-timbered duck house. Information boards are included. The setting sun gleams idyllically on the water.

Top leisure destination during the GDR era, long forgotten, is now slowly returning from obscurity

The area of today's "Neun Brunnen", located south of the town of Heiligenstadt in the Pferdebach valley, was first documented in 1634. It got its name from the nine springs (Neun Börner). The area is still rich in springs today, although the exact number is not known. As early as the 19th century, the area of the "Neun Brunnen" was a popular destination for Heiligenstadt families. People would meet up in company and have picnics. People could make their own coffee to accompany their meals. Gastronomy has been in operation since around 1880.
