Tabaksweiher, Artificial pond near Sankt Arnual, Saarbrücken, Germany.

The Tabaksweiher stretches 200 meters in length and 50 meters in width, creating a water surface of 2 hectares at 214 meters elevation.

The pond dates back to 1600 and received its name from the tobacco mill constructed in 1831, which produced snuff tobacco until 1860.

The former tobacco mill transformed into a restaurant in 1920, serving seasonal dishes with French influences to visitors and local residents.

Walking paths circle the pond's perimeter of 500 meters, though the northeastern section intersects with the restaurant terrace area.

The inflow area frequently floods the path, requiring visitors to remove their shoes and wade through water to complete the circuit.
