Beautifully landscaped and large lake in a small park landscape. Can be circled in about 20 minutes. Some bathing spots and also a small landing stage for boats. Pretty.

The Sarrebourg water and swimming area, formerly known as L’étang Lévêque (or Lévêque Pond), changed its name in 1984 and became the municipal pond. A change that was made in 1984, when the town hall bought the land that now serves as a recreational area from a private company. The loop walk around the pond is worth it.
