The Hohenackersee was originally created to supply water to the Maulbronn Monastery. It is one of over 20 lakes that the monks of the Maulbronn Monastery created to ensure the monastery's water supply and to farm fish. A few centuries later, Hermann Hesse, during his time in Maulbronn, described the lake as his favorite lake.

The lake, once laid out by monks from Maulbronn Monastery for fish farming, is located in a remote area in the forest. It can only be reached via an unpaved road.
