Werbeliner See, Protected lake area in Wiedemar, Germany.
The Werbeliner See stretches across 450 hectares of water surface, forming a substantial freshwater body in the Saxon Lake District north of Leipzig.
The lake emerged from a former lignite mining site called Delitzsch-Southwest, which operated until 1993 and required the relocation of three villages.
The protected area maintains numerous walking paths and cycling routes, attracting outdoor enthusiasts who explore the transformed mining landscape.
Visitors can access the nature reserve through multiple entry points from the surrounding municipalities of Wiedemar, Delitzsch, Rackwitz, and Schkeuditz.
Two total reserve zones covering 805 hectares within the protected area allow nature to develop completely free from human intervention.
