Around the Blausteinsee lake, there are several memorial stones commemorating the many villages that had to make way for the open-cast lignite mining.

At the beginning of the 1970s, the place had to give way to the Zukunft-West open-cast brown coal mine; the residents were relocated and Langendorf was then demolished. Where the place once lay is now the north bank of the Blausteinsee.
