Small lake in Treptower Park, which invites you to linger on the banks.

The carp pond is an artificially created body of water in the Berlin district of Alt-Treptow (Treptow-Köpenick district) with a depth of 70 cm.

The pond is located in Treptower Park south of the Soviet memorial. It was laid out in the course of the park design by the Berlin garden architect Gustav Meyer at the end of the 19th century. He created a playground nearby and used the excavation of the pond for this. This should be fed by the Heidekampgraben, so that Meyer had a dam built in the direction of the moat during the construction work. However, a laid-off worker destroyed it, causing the depression to fill with water and delaying work on the pond. The tenants of the surrounding restaurants used carp and gave the previously nameless water its current name. In 1907 a sculpture made of shell limestone with the designation Meeresgrund by Otto Petri (1860–1942) was set up in a bay.

In the winter of 2009/2010, the majority of the fish living in the pond perished after the water largely froze through. In May 2010 it was therefore decided as part of a stocking measure to put young pike in the pond. At the end of October the stocking was supplemented with tench.

The carp pond is pretty close to the street 'Am Treptower Park' and yet you are here in idyllic nature. A good place for a small city escape.
