Mine Lake

Highlight • Lake

Earlier, Preussen-Elektra mined coal in the open pit. When this was over in the last century, this refuge for fish, birds and humans was created.

Huge willow pavilion (completed in 2023) with a diameter of over 10 meters.
A great new location on the Bergwerksee ... and an ideal shady resting place (benches available)!
There are also numerous small natural works of art to discover all around.

Mine lake

Highlight • Lake

The lake was created in the last open pit of the PREUSSENELEKTRA.
Lignite was mined in the Weckesheim, Dorn-Assenheim and Reichelsheim area from 1942 to 1962 in civil engineering and from 1983 to 1991 with opencast mines VI and VII.
The area of the lake covers about 70 hectares and is surrounded by a dense hedge belt.


Although swimming is not allowed, there are always some swimming sun worshipers here. This lake, with its all-encompassing hedge, is really beautifully situated.
