Blindenmarkt is my birthplace, I grew up there, I know pretty much everything there! At the Auseen I've bathed countless times, in the evening when most of the hustle and bustle was over I went swimming, that was the most beautiful time! The bathing lakes were created by the motorway construction, because they needed gravel, they dug for gravel and then the water came and that was the beginning of the Auseen. Of course it used to look very different, the lakes have been around since 1960 and a lot has been done since then! On hot days in summer, the lakes are a very popular destination, there are a lot of bathers, and parking spaces are rare! There is a lake festival once a year in July. Right on the lake there are two snack shops, a toilet and a restaurant and the second restaurant is about a km away from the lake and the village is about two km away!

Here at Ausee 3 there are many beautiful living options, but also beautiful views of the lake are possible, especially if you sit in front of the bistro on the shore in summer and enjoy the mood. Of course, bathing is also a pleasure here.
