Aasee, Artificial reservoir in Münster, Germany

The Aasee covers 40 hectares with a length of 2.3 kilometers, reaching a maximum depth of 2 meters and featuring an 8-kilometer circular trail.

Construction of the Aasee began in 1914 but was interrupted by World War I, with completion achieved in 1934 as part of flood control measures.

The Aasee Park displays numerous sculptures, including notable exhibits such as Claes Oldenburg's large billiard balls along the waterfront promenade.

The lake supports various recreational activities throughout the year, including sailing, rowing, and pedal boat rentals from the Overschmidt yachting school.

The SOLAARIS, a 16-meter solar-powered passenger boat with 28 solar modules, transports up to 68 visitors across the waters of Aasee.
