    Tips

    June 7, 2016

    The Pleckenbrinksee is a mountain sinking water created in autumn 2007 in Dortmund-Wickede. The ground- and rainwater-fed lake temporarily covers an area of ​​more than 5.6 ha and is up to 1.5 m deep. It originated in a mining sink area created around 1930 on an agricultural area after defects at the drainage and / or pumping facility.
    The lake adjacent to the nature reserve Wickeder Ostholz was temporarily protected by the city of Dortmund. In 2011, it was temporarily drained, as under the waters of a natural gas pipeline of the natural gas transport company Open Grid Europe runs, and this had to be secured.
    Since 2011, the lake continues as a protected landscape component and is therefore also under nature conservation.
