Tirschenreuther Teichpfanne, Lake system in Tirschenreuth district, Bavaria, Germany.
The Tirschenreuther Teichpfanne spans across 15 square kilometers, featuring over 3,700 interconnected ponds separated by narrow embankments in northeastern Bavaria.
The pond system originated from the Cistercian Monastery of Waldsassen during medieval times, with the monastery managing 160 ponds until their privatization in 1803.
The region maintains traditional carp farming practices, with numerous local fish farmers continuing this centuries-old agricultural method in shallow one to two-meter-deep ponds.
Visitors can access the pond landscape through marked trails and observe the entire area from the 30-meter-high Himmelsleiter viewing platform near Kühsteinteich.
A former railway line near the Teichpfanne has been converted into a 28.4-kilometer cycling path, allowing cyclists to explore the extensive pond network.
