Lake Schladitzer See in the Central German Lake District is the remaining opencast pit of the former Breitenfeld lignite mine in northwest Saxony, about eleven kilometers north of Leipzig city center and about twelve kilometers south of Delitzsch.

The lake is surrounded by the municipality of Rackwitz and the Schkeuditz districts of Hayna and Wolteritz. The lake was flooded from 1999 to 2012 and covers an area of 220 hectares.

Coal mining at the Breitenfeld open-cast mine began in 1986. The town of Lössen fell victim to development in 1986. From 1989 to 1991, the municipality of Schladitz, after which the lake is named, was evacuated and demolished. This also affected the Schladitz district of Kömmlitz.

After 1990, sales of raw lignite and lignite products deteriorated so sharply that several now unprofitable open-cast mines were closed. The former town of Schladitz remained unaffected by mining. Plans to expand the Breitenfeld open-cast mine to the northern outskirts of Leipzig and to reroute the A14 federal highway were never realized.

Lake Schladitz is used as a bathing lake, water sports center, and fishing spot. Swimming has been permitted in two areas since 2003, following the reinforcement of the embankment. Use of the lake thus began years before the planned final water level of 104 m above sea level was reached.

Due to its close proximity to the village, the Wolteritz beach was established as a local bathing area for the local population, based on the principle of "visitor guidance instead of prohibition signs."[1]
