Silver Lake

Highlight • Lake

The Silbersee was created when brown coal mining ended in the mid-1930s. The remaining holes in the opencast mines slowly filled with water as the groundwater rose again.
The Silbersee used to belong to the “Donatus Pit” opencast mine. It was named after the commercial councilor Adolf Silverberg, who founded the Fortuna union, a corporation in the mining law sense, in 1898.
The 2.2 hectare large and 4.5 m deep lake is under landscape protection. Protected spawning zones have been set up here all year round, which may not be entered or fished for.

Lake Liblar

Highlight • Lake

Lake Liblar is one of the cleanest bathing lakes in the Cologne/Bonn region and belongs to the town of Erftstadt in the Rhein-Erft district. The Ville lakes were created after the cessation of lignite mining. The former Liblar open-cast mine pit was recultivated and now offers numerous sports and recreational opportunities.

View of Otto-Maigler Lake

Highlight • Viewpoint

Here you can take a nice break with a view of Lake Otto Maigler. However, there are others who see it that way. Therefore, there are often visitors here who are already there.
