    When I see the lake, I don't need the sea anymore.
    It's not always like this now, but it helps to bridge the time 😉

    The Phoenixsee in Dortmund is a prime example of the structural change in the Ruhr area city and today serves as a popular local recreation area. Located on the site of the former Phoenix-Ost steelworks, the artificial lake was opened to the public in 2011. With a length of 1.2 kilometers, a maximum width of 310 meters and an area of ​​around 24 hectares, its size even exceeds that of the Hamburg Alster. The maximum depth of the lake is around 4.6 meters and it holds around 600,000 cubic meters of water.
