Ellertshäuser See

Highlight • Lake

As the largest lake in Lower Franconia, Lake Ellertshäuser See – picturesquely surrounded by forest – is a true recreational and holiday paradise for holidaymakers and nature lovers.

With its area of 33 hectares, Lake Ellertshausen is not only proud of its size, but also wonderful to look at. You can no longer really tell that this is a reservoir, the beautiful blue blends so perfectly into its surroundings.

Wooden Owl Sculpture and Van Buren Memorial Stone

Highlight • Monument

Again and again you will come across great stations along the way. First this beautiful owl stands in front of you - shortly afterwards you discover the memorial stone for the clearing of the forest. Even if you are in the middle of the forest - it definitely won't get boring here!

According to the latest reports, the lake will probably not be usable again as a bathing and adventure lake until 2025. From November 2021 the water will be drained. The beautiful nature in the area invites you to go hiking.

Lake Ellertshäuser

Highlight • Lake

A beautiful path leads all the way around Lower Franconia's largest lake. The lake is a great place for a break. You can grab a snack at the kiosk and, if the weather's nice, sit on the sandy beach.

Highlight • Viewpoint

The dam was built between 1955 and 1957. With 33 hectares, Lake Ellertshausen is the largest reservoir in the Lower Franconia administrative region. The lake is named after the deserted area of Ellertshausen, a village that was abandoned in the 15th century.
