    Also called Füssenicher See, is a residual open pit lake that was formed around 1967 through the recultivation of the “Zülpich-Mitte” open-cast lignite mine (formerly “Victor” after the founder of the operating company, Viktor Rolff) in the area of the city of Zülpich.

      In the past, lignite was dug here near Zülpich. The pit of the opencast mine became a lake, which today serves as a recreational area. There are trees around the lake, so it is nice and quiet and shady on the shore.

        Should have emerged from an old opencast mine, like the Zülpicher See. Nice facility.
