Tips
The Stellbergsee is popularly known as the Mondsee and is a 1.4 hectare open-cast mine in the North Hessian Söhre.

The 130 years of mining caused the water level on the Stellberg to fall sharply and yet large amounts of water broke into a pit on two occasions, so that mining was finally stopped. Instead, an opencast mine was built in 1962 and the basalt top layer was removed, but 5 years later the mine was completely shut down and the pit filled with water.
There are large stones on the Stellbergsee that offer a nice place to sit. The lake can be easily circumnavigated.translated by•October 23, 2022
