Silbersee in Nürnberg

Silbersee in Nürnberg, Still waters in Volkspark Dutzendteich, Nuremberg, Germany

Description

Silbersee is a still water body located in the southeastern part of Volkspark Dutzendteich in Nuremberg, surrounded by walking paths and wooded areas. The lake sits within this green park space and offers a quiet setting for visitors to explore.

History

The lake began as a massive construction pit in the 1930s, originally planned for the German Stadium. After World War II, the site served as a landfill until 1962, eventually developing into the recreational area visitors see today.

Culture

The lake serves as a gathering place where locals walk the surrounding paths and observe wildlife. People come here to spend time outdoors and enjoy the natural setting.

Practical

Swimming is not permitted in this water due to harmful hydrogen sulfide concentrations that make it unsafe for contact. Visitors should stay on the walking paths and enjoy the surroundings from the shore.

Did you know?

The lake reaches depths of about 10 meters and contains significant industrial deposits from post-war operations that have created distinct ecological conditions. This geological history makes the site interesting for those curious about the area's environmental past.
