Mühlenteich, Mill pond in Old Town, Lübeck, Germany.
The Mühlenteich reservoir spans across the northern section of Lübeck's Old Town, reflecting the towers of nearby St. Mary's Church in its waters.
Dating from medieval times, this artificial lake served as a water reservoir for the operation of watermills that powered Lübeck's industrial activities.
The mill pond forms part of Lübeck's UNESCO World Heritage site, integrated with the medieval urban landscape of the Hanseatic city.
Visitors can access the pond via Mühlenstraße, where numerous restaurants and hotels offer views over the water toward Lübeck Cathedral.
The pond maintains its original medieval water management system, demonstrating the technical innovation of Hanseatic engineering from the 13th century.
